Recommendation on a mastering studio for vinyl?

Howdy - my garage-y rock band is putting out our record on vinyl. Never mastered to vinyl before, wondering if anyone has recommendations on a studio or engineer to go with, or thoughts on pitfalls to avoid etc. Thanks!

I found a guy called Graham Durham who worked out of Exchange Mastering in the U.K.

He knows how to do the task but the mastering house isn't tooled up.

Apart from that I know of a few shit lathes with digital front ends not worth a pinch of shit and I know a few quality lathes residing above houses of deaf people with dementia from drug abuse...

How much money you looking to spend?

What are your masters on at the moment?

Yeah, the people you want to know about for cutting vinyl in New York or anywhere else in the entire world are Paul Gold at Salt, Alex at Masterdisk and Joe Lambert at JLM.

Thanks! We'll be recording into Pro Tools. Hadn't thought too hard about the budget yet, although money is certainly not unlimited. Paul at Salt sounds pretty reasonable. We're a pretty loud garage-y/post-punk type band (sort of like Shellac/Fugazi) with a female singer, so we want to make sure we go with someone who's used to working with that sort of thing.

Paul Gold is an ace and he won't nickel and dime you on the project either.
