Reviews around product (5.00 of 5)

  • Great product for its size, i would highly recommend to all musicians
  • 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.
  • 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 but DC adaptor that I bought with this product, which was recommended, isn't compatible.
  • 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

Reviews around value (5.00 of 5)

  • For a microamp, this satellite speaker is a good value.
  • The great value I get from these is due to the combination I can make for practice
  • 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

Reviews around quality (4.72 of 5)

  • Sound quality and build quality is very good for such a small amp cabinet combo
  • It has great sound quality with large volumes enough for home using
  • I purchased this to use as a practice amp, it is amazing the quality of sound that you can get out of it
  • The small size of this amp will not prepare you for its brilliant sound quality
  • Made in China so the quality is mediocre; however, functionality is very good and the sound is substantive for such a small device

Reviews around delay (4.45 of 5)

  • Awesome authentic tones and great delay at a very affordable price
  • The delay, drive all work great but should come with a power cord.
  • I disliked the fact that after only 2 months the delay makes the amp squeal uncontrollably and its completely unusable
  • And they give us a very decent delay for less than $70!
  • 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 only downside to the a.p is the overdrive channel
  • The overdrive gives a nice crunchy sound and the clear channel gives a good, rich sound as well.
  • -).I like playing with the Gain high on the clean channel because it has a nice gritty clean tone for a solid state amp
  • That being said the clean channel with the delay is amazing
  • 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)

  • Many practice amps do not offer any effects (except the Roland Cube for triple the price!) but this one does- delay.
  • A little smaller than I expected but sounds great and has good effects
  • Well, a high level of delay and a low time gives a good reverb effect, so don't fear, you can make reverb happen.
  • 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
  • Nice tone plenty of volume and the delay really adds nice effect.

Reviews around volume (4.18 of 5)

  • Loud volume and beautiful tone and resonance.
  • 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
  • For kicks I cranked up the volume and gain with the overdrive and they did work pretty well

Reviews around feature (4.01 of 5)

  • I’m getting out of this thing in the first week, and the delay effect is a great feature to play with

  • 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

Reviews around thing (4.01 of 5)

  • I completely agree with one of the other posters--This thing will probably only get more expensive once everyone catches on.
  • 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
  • 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.
  • it changed my life ( apart from AA meetings ) this is the best thing ever happened to me
  • Best practice anywhere amp ever, can't say enough good things about its sound and value
