Just a brief explanation for anyone who has stumbled upon this site.

ValveTone Amplification is a business established in late 2008 with the

objective of designing and hand building low powered, all valve

musical instrument amplifiers - primarily but not exclusively for electric

guitar.

The business proprietor ( and sole employee! ) is Darryl Hoy. I built

"Scion" valve amplifiers in Newcastle in the 1970's and early 1980's

so this is a return to where my career began over thirty years ago.

This website is still under ( slow ) construction and will probably not be

updated until later in 2009.
