Authorized Hoffman board manufacturers
  This is a listing of Authorized Hoffman amplifiers board manufacturers. The technicians below have purchased the Hoffman Board manufacturing tools and are set up to make the boards. Some people buy the manufacturing tools for personal use only or do not care to sell the boards other than in their local area.  Note that I have sold over 150 sets of the board making tool templates, but very few people make the boards for sale commercially.
  You may find boards on Ebay or other sites that state they are Hoffman style boards. If you are unsure, you can check with the guys on my amp forum for verification. Please email me if you find any of the people below are out of business or are not producing quality boards and services. My email link is at the bottom of this page.

 At Revolver Amplification I work for you. My name is Charles Prest and I am Revolver Amplification. I Specialize in Building Boutique Hand Wired Tube Amplifiers. And for those of you who feel you did not get what you expected with your classic re-issue, retro-fitting my custom Hoffman Boards is the answer. I also Repair, Modify and Restore Vintage Fender, Marshall and Vox Tube Amps.
 My current line includes a 15 Watt, 1X12 Deluxe style Combo as well as a 45 Watt 4X10 Bassman, the AB763 in all of its configurations, the 18 Watt Stout, the Vox AC-30, and the 50 Watt and 100 Watt Plexi Heads and Combos.  As a Hoffman Board Manufacturer and a professional working engineer I appreciate excellent circuit design. Doug Hoffman's designs have the very nuance we search for; low noise, efficient point to point circuitry. See how clean and unobtrusive the layouts are. These designs, using turrets, lend themselves to component experimentation with easy access to the resistors and capacitors.

Hatcher Vintage Amps -"The heart of Rock 'n Roll is still beatin' - in Cleveland!"  If you're a musician trying to capture the unique  sounds of "vintage" rock, look no further! Hatcher Vintage Amps, located just a few miles from the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame, has your amp! Ron began building his own amps using vintage Marshall's and Fender's as his models. He stayed true to the original components, but he crafts his own cabinets and baffle boards from Poplar which gives each Hatcher Amp its' own unique voice.  He also uses boards and layouts by Hoffman Amps for their low noise characteristics and efficiency. Choosing vacuum tubes over transistors and AlNiCo rather than ceramic magnets also makes a big difference. All components are selected based on their closeness to their vintage counter part and their tonal quality. It's Ron's attention to detail that gives each Hatcher Vintage Amp it's own unique sound . . . from smooth blues to the sound of the deep southern swamp.  Check us out at www.hatcheramps.com.  or call 1 (440) 871-9090 Board kits manufactured
