Built with passion. Made to last.

Real gear, from a real workbench.

Bédard Amplification is a small independent builder of analog studio equipment, DIY kits and parts. Each finished unit is assembled and tested directly by the builder—not pulled from a warehouse shelf.

That small-batch approach means careful work, practical support and a direct line to the person who built your gear.
