Well it ain't going to set the world on fire with volume. BUT it is plenty loud for it's intended use. it is perfect for jamming along with your computer, DVDs, MP3s. It's cute. Delay is very good. Gain is good and not cheap or tinny. I got it for desktop use to play along with lick lessons. No need to plug in a big amp. This little guy has really nice clean to grit tone without blowing the windows out. Especially for blues. It cleans up rolling the volume back like a big amp. And it seems to be pick sensitive. Don't worry about the little speaker fizzing out. It would be great for traveling and playing in a hotel room. It could get loud enough to annoy neighbors in a hotel room.It does sound like a full size amp and it is very addicting to play. At some time I may spring for the extension speaker but for now it is perfect.

This box sounds good for what it is. Way better than those other minis. Watch the shoot out on you tube. Clean and overdrive and delay all sound good. I have a blast with it and dont have to fire up my stack or other large amps. I leave it on my bar and when i want to practice just plug in and turn it on. I actually play more now since its so handy. I haven't had to use manufacturers support.

You won't be sticking this on your bookshelves with all your mock replicas of famous amps and porcelain trinkets of famous rock stars or bobbleheads. No. For quiet, rational practice the Fly 3 delivers (exceeds) expectation for tonal quality that isn't dissimilar from much costlier Blackstars at a volume that keeps 'the sound in your head' all in the confines your own living space. (Mostly, because 3 watts can get pretty loud) It has a delay effect with volume that makes amateurs like me, better than I am. It's settled. The Blackstar Fly 3 lives up to the online hype. I recommend the power supply rather than paying less for a generic equivalent which most likely won't work. If you like the Blackstar Signature sound you'll be infatuated by the Fly 3.
