Description

The Blackstar FLY 3 Acoustic Amplifier is a compact, 3 watt mini amp designed for acoustic and electro acoustic players who want great sound anywhere. It is perfect for guitarists, uke players and singer songwriters who need an easy grab and go solution for home practice, warm ups before a gig, writing sessions and low volume jams. Despite its tiny footprint, it delivers clear, natural acoustic tone with simple controls that let you focus on playing rather than tweaking. It also doubles as a handy desktop speaker for listening to tracks, making it a versatile tool for learners, teachers and travelling musicians alike.

A thoughtful acoustic voicing and a full range driver help preserve the character of your instrument, from delicate fingerstyle to open strums. The compact closed back cabinet projects surprisingly well, while onboard tone shaping and a musical ambience effect add polish without making things sound processed. Build quality is reassuring, with a robust enclosure and tidy control layout that is quick to understand. Compared with basic first step practice amps, the FLY 3 Acoustic offers a more refined acoustic response, quieter operation and more useful connections, all in a bag friendly format.

For UK tuition and school use it ticks all the right boxes. The aux input lets students play along with lesson material and backing tracks, while the headphone and line out enable silent practice that will not disturb anyone at home or in halls. Battery operation gives true portability for practice anywhere, with the option to add a mains adaptor for fixed setups. Teachers will appreciate the light weight and quick setup between rooms, and learners will value the dependable, great sounding platform that encourages consistent daily practice without taking over the living space. It is excellent value as a first acoustic amp that still feels capable as skills progress.

Features

Portable acoustic tone, anywhere

With 3 watts of power in a compact cabinet, the FLY 3 Acoustic delivers clear, natural sound that flatters acoustic instruments at home, in lessons and on the move. It is small enough for a backpack, yet projects confidently for personal practice and close range jams.

Acoustic-voiced with musical ambience

The amp is tuned for acoustic instruments, preserving dynamics and detail while simple tone shaping makes it easy to sit your sound in the mix. A built-in ambience effect adds space and polish, enhancing fingerstyle and strummed parts without overpowering the core tone.

Play-along and silent practice ready

An aux input lets you connect a phone, tablet or laptop for backing tracks and lessons, while a headphone/line out provides quiet practice and easy recording or monitoring. These connections make daily practice more engaging and classroom use straightforward.

Battery or mains power with expansion option

Run on AA batteries for true portability or add an optional mains adaptor for fixed setups. The design also supports use with an optional matching extension cabinet for a wider soundstage when you want a bigger spread of acoustic tone.
