I haven't been on the site for a while and just clicked on my bookmarked link and to my dismay it looks look Classictone is no more - say it ain't so!

Other than Mercury Magnetics & Edcor, who else is supplying transformers?

Hammond is still around, at least for now!
When I die, I want to go like my Grandfather did, peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming like the passengers in his car!
Cutting out a man's tongue does not mean he’s a liar, but it does show that you fear the truth he might speak about you!

Musical Power Supplies is still in business. They make nice quality, affordable transformers.

Re: Is Classictone transformers kaput?!
I tried my best to get them bought by someone...I spoke with friends at Gibson, Fender, Heyboer and Mercury, nobody had interest.
I do know Heyboer bought some raw inventory and machinery from them. Not sure if anyone else did, or it included any intellectual property etc.
It's sad, they were making transformers for practically everyone since the 40's...
