From engineers who have cut thousands of records

Vinyl Mastering

We’ve all heard the saying “Practice makes perfect” right? What sets us apart is our team of engineers have spent thousands of hours behind record lathes evaluating sound and quality so we know exactly what makes a great record great.

  • I had expected some sort of compromise with doing a one-off vinyl project, but was totally blown away by the sound of the pressing. As a musician and a recording engineer with 35 years of experience, the one-off vinyl I ordered is the best sounding record of any of the numerous records I've been a part of. It's as clean as an acetate, but more durable. No pops, no surface noise. Thick 180 gram vinyl, nice labels. Also, great customer service. Highly recommended.

  • I will 100% be going back to AVC for all of my vinyl pressing needs. I've released 12 projects on all digital platforms that I now want to press on vinyl and sell to all of my supporters, and doing it independently without a label seems easy with AVC. They respond to emails within hours every time and even though they are a small team, they're a strong team that seems to have their company running smoothly.

  • American Vinyl Co did an amazing job turning my EP project with visual artist Maggie Chiang into an artistic heirloom! The process was super easy, and the product turned out great! My fans were able to enjoy a physical format of my EP Under the Peach Tree, and they were also able to have a super hi-res jacket of the album art 🙂 Definitely will work with them again!

  • This was such an easy experience and the albums turned out perfect. They were very responsive and had a much quicker turnaround than I expected. Will 100% be using them again in the future.

  • Recently ordered vinyl copies of my sister's band for her college graduation. She and her bandmates were SO surprised and excited! The vinyl quality is incredible - the audio is fantastic. I am overjoyed with how the order turned out and would highly recommend American Vinyl Co to anyone who is interested in custom vinyl pressings.
