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. |

| 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
