Re: Mojo + Heyboer Transformers
Many of Mojo's transformers are made by Heyboer but I don't think they all are. I believe they have (or had) certain ones made by an offshore manufacturer as well.
The Heyboers they sell are top quality units based on their own specifications/teardowns of vintage trannies.
You won't find OEM ones there though so a Marshall 100W OT, for instance, won't be the same as George's Metroamp one or Brian's Marstran one, and a Twin OT won't be the same as Brandon's Bludotone one, etc. as these are all proprietary.

Mad Dog,
I know the Trainwreck replacement trannies are definitely Heyboers. I can't say about the rest of them.

Re: Mojo + Heyboer Transformers
I got this from Mojo
" Yes, they are still made by heyboer."
That was all the said when I asked much the same question

Re: Mojo + Heyboer Transformers
On the web site it seems to indicate that some of their trannies are not Heyboer.

Re: Mojo + Heyboer Transformers
I'm still not really sure either way, probably won't make a huge difference when choosing my next transformers anyway, but it would be nice if there was some clarity in when suppliers say "Transformers are made in the USA" but never tell you exactly who made them
Never mind

Re: Mojo + Heyboer Transformers
Heyboer will be able to tell you, as they often refer customers straight to a Mojo part when it's one that Mojo stock rather than having to wind something specially.
