Great sound. Only negative is the lack of a power cord.

It exceeded expectations. I had a small 9v "smokey" amp a while back and figured this was going to be a glorified toy, but it isn't. Tone is nice, clean, and crunchy when overdriven. Tape delay effect is easy to play with so you can play some U2 or Pink Floyd. I can play guitar in my home office without waking my wife and kids. One thing, not the product but the description - it came with 6 AA batteries, but not a wired power supply. The description said power supply was in the box.

Love it. More options than I thought. The delay is a great feature. Having a portable amp makes for so many more hours playing. Quality compared to normal amps under $150 is fine, much better than I expected. Purchase exceed my expectations especially because I got it 15$ off.

The FLY 3 has the most realistic sounding tube amp emulations and many of the best attributes found in legendary amps. It has an endless variety of timbres and can easily go from bell like clarity to a punchy overdrive. Plug in your favorite guitar, use your best microphones, headphones and cables with this battery powered wonder and you’ll get the same satisfying results I’ve been enjoying. I know I’ll never look back. I’m not affiliated with Blackstar.

The FLY 3 is an innovative, cutting edge 3 watt mini amp which combines two channels, tape delay and the Blackstar patented Infinite Shape Feature (ISF) to create the perfect compact and portable guitar amplifier. It's advantageously small and packs a punch with big TONE, even at the lowest volumes. The ISF allows you to infinitely change the sound of your FLY 3, which gives you endless possibilities on the tone of your amp. The FLY 3 also features tape delay effects, allowing you to make your amp output resonate during play.
The FLY 3 also comes with an MP3 / LINE IN jack built in, allowing you to connect to your MP3 player, mobile phone, laptop, tablet etc. and jam along to your favorite tracks; the Emulated Output jack can also be used with headphones. Capable of being battery powered, you can take the FLY 3 with you wherever you go as a set of portable speakers.
Battery Powered
The FLY 3 mini guitar amp can be battery powered or when bought as a stereo pack, it can use the included power supply. It takes 6 batteries, preferably rechargeable.
Tape Delay
This amp includes an awesome tape delay effect with a tape delay level control.
MP3 / Line Input
Use this guitar amp as an MP3 speaker or as a general speaker for your computer. Also use it to play along to backing tracks while practicing.
Record Using The Emulated Output
Record directly to your computer or even run it through a PA. Use with headphones to practice when you need to keep quiet.
Connect An Extension Cabinet
Turn the FLY 3 into a stereo mini amp by purchasing a FLY 103 extension cabinet and getting a 6W stereo sound. Use as your computer speakers, portable speakers when traveling as well.
ISF Control
The ISF control works in conjunction with the Tone control. It allows you to choose the exact tone signature you prefer. Fully CCW is a more American characteristic with a tight bottom end and more aggressive middle and fully CW is a British characteristic which is more 'woody' and less aggressive.
