Reviews around product (5.00 of 5)

  • Batteries last long and of course depends on how much u use it ( just like anything else in this world , duh ).. spending $20 for wall power is like adding a second gas tank on a Toyota PRIUS
  • The Blackstar FLY3 amp is not simply a great product for electric guitars, it is one of the most effective and useful products of any category I've experienced in my life.
  • Great product but DC adaptor that I bought with this product, which was recommended, isn't compatible.
  • no buzzing sounds).Amazon mistakenly offers a Planet Waves 9 volt adapter with this amp; the correct adapter is 5 volts and costs $19.99 and not $9.99, I purchased the latter from Amazon and can't use it with the Fly3.Overall a good product; however, Chinese workmanship and reliability is always questionable, otherwise this would be a 5 star.
  • Great product for its size, i would highly recommend to all musicians

Reviews around value (5.00 of 5)

  • For a microamp, this satellite speaker is a good value.
  • For playing at living room or bedroom level there is no better value
  • As an almost complete guitar noob with a very basic level of knowledge this squirt is a great little value for a newbie like me
  • Great little Amp, nice tone and value for an itty bitty box
  • The great value I get from these is due to the combination I can make for practice

Reviews around quality (4.72 of 5)

  • The small size of this amp will not prepare you for its brilliant sound quality
  • Sound quality is great for a mini, much better than the minuscule size.
  • Made in China so the quality is mediocre; however, functionality is very good and the sound is substantive for such a small device
  • Sound quality and build quality is very good for such a small amp cabinet combo
  • I purchased this to use as a practice amp, it is amazing the quality of sound that you can get out of it

Reviews around delay (4.70 of 5)

  • the delay is usable (not robotic sounding...) and it actually sounds and feels good
  • And they give us a very decent delay for less than $70!
  • The delay, drive all work great but should come with a power cord.
  • Awesome authentic tones and great delay at a very affordable price
  • With the delay set low it sounds more like reverb, crank it up and you have some digital delay giving excellent dynamic to what is a surprisingly good sounding amp.

Reviews around channel (4.44 of 5)

  • The dirty channel lets you get some solid almost
  • High Gain on the clean channel will distort, giving you from a fuzz up to a good overdrive sound, AC/DC style.
  • The only downside to the a.p is the overdrive channel
  • -).I like playing with the Gain high on the clean channel because it has a nice gritty clean tone for a solid state amp
  • The clean channel's max volume is pretty low, but the gain channel makes up for it (the guitar's volume rolled back gives a good clean sound on the gin channel).Very happy with this little amp.

Reviews around effect (4.28 of 5)

  • Nice tone plenty of volume and the delay really adds nice effect.
  • A little smaller than I expected but sounds great and has good effects
  • This little rig sounds amazing for its size and the effects are really cool too
  • Pro- completely portable, battery operated, sounds good, special effects that work (clean, overdrive, shape, delay with level and delay time), not a toy, output for headphone or recording
  • it has good overdrive and delay effects incorporated plus an auxiliar jack for your phone and backup tracks.

Reviews around volume (4.18 of 5)

  • Good for a bedroom where volume is an issue
  • The tone knob is really cool, and the volume is perfect!
  • The volume is much louder than my Pignose was, where neighbors can easily hear it
  • For kicks I cranked up the volume and gain with the overdrive and they did work pretty well
  • Volume, tone, and overdrive are impressive for such a small package.

Reviews around practice (4.16 of 5)

  • You won't get a totally realistic tube-amp lead tone from this unit, but the FLY3PAK is very useful as a practice amp or jamming with others in the living room; after an hour or so I really started missing my tube-based Mesa amp
  • A great little practice amp and the batteries seem to last forever.
  • Impressive sound for such small speakers, great practice amps for travel.
  • I use small, cheap wireless and a Ibanez Mikro for the perfect, cheap travel or portable practice
  • Best practice anywhere amp ever, can't say enough good things about its sound and value

  • They recommend rechargeable batteries when not plugging it in
  • Great little amp that is battery operated, great for those on the move
  • LOUD!The stock batteries last hours!
  • It didn't clip while I bashed that low b

Reviews around feature (4.01 of 5)

  • It has good features for the price and really sounds great for the size
  • The delay feature sounds incredible and the overdrive does the job
  • There are some key features that are missing that should be on an amp like this....like a chorus feature
  • I like the delay as well, a nice feature to help expand the range of sounds
  • Great features..gain knob and gain button plus volume & equalizer knobs, as well as digital delay.

Reviews around thing (4.01 of 5)

  • This thing is incredibly powerful for its small size, and has some cool features to boot such as the EQ and reverb dials... definitely gives you a lot of room to play with the sound
  • Best practice anywhere amp ever, can't say enough good things about its sound and value
  • First of all, the FLY is an incredible amp, which you can see from the great reviews, but I'd like to point out that at $66 for the amp, 103 cabinet, and power supply, versus the regular $99 is the best thing going.
  • The delay feature works great with my lap-steel and dobro.... this thing is awsome
  • I completely agree with one of the other posters--This thing will probably only get more expensive once everyone catches on.
