Located in the MARC-Music/Art/Rock Consortium at 611 N Orchard St, Boise, ID.
Hetrick Electric is my electronics repair facility dedicated to repairing/modifying tube and solid state amps, keyboards, guitars, and most other musical equipment.
I have over 40 years experience in the repair of electronics equipment. I cut my teeth on Fender amps at the ripe old age of 16 back when Fender Blackface’s were still considered “new”.
The bottom line is I recently retired and I retired right. I’m in this to help out my fellow musician friends with craftsmanship work at very fair prices and because I love it.
Tube amp specialist
My first exposure with tube circuits was in my Navy electronics school at a time when tubes were still used extensively. Yeah, a LONG time ago. I’ve worked on tube based amplifiers, etc as a hobby throughout my career as an Electrical Engineer up to my recent retirement.
Broad repair/modification for most musical equipment
There’s pretty much nothing musically related I can’t work on. I fixed a bagpipe once. And I’m happy to do so. THAT SAID there are things that I prefer not to work on. #1 on the list is pedals. The problem with pedals is their cost. Even at our VERY reasonable hourly rates it is next to impossible to repair a pedal for less than it costs unless it is a rare or expensive one.
Keyboard repair
It can be difficult to find someone that will look at keyboards and for a good reason. They are quite complex electronically and simply eat time. It’s hard to make minimum wage on them.
That said, I like keyboards and enjoy working on them. And I wont kill you on the final bill.
Mountain Home support
I work out of 2 shops. One is in the MARC in Boise at 611 N Orchard St. I live south of Mountain Home and also work out of my home shop. Therefore I can pick up and deliver to Mountain Home. This is a free service. Unless you want to throw in a taco. I like taco’s.
