I own the original black Fly.. and everyone who played in it fell in love with it and wanted one. It has a surprisingly beautiful sound.. warm but very articulate.. i love it, especially for a small portable amp 👌

Beautifully expressive playing... and such a gorgeous sunburst stratocaster, its reminiscent of a spectacular sunset :-) I like the chicken head knobs on the Vintage Fly 3 model best. Its a shame they aren't in an actual tweed covering, although the creamy white isn't far off. I find your playing utterly inspiring, such a talent... thanks for sharing. Happy New Year!

Wow!!! Absolutely fantastic playing and tone!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I have the Fly and it is one of thee best amps I have ever heard! If they could make a 15 or 25 watt version, that would be awesome! My gut feeling is that the Debut 50 would be a close second to the Fly at a higher wattage! I haven’t played through the Debut 50, but would definitely like to!

Hello everyone, if i use the amp in a stereo set with the second speaker, which is the right and which is the left channel ? Not for the guitar, of course, the two loudspeakers are connected in parallel, i mean for stereo music playback via aux. Or are we being fooled here and this thing can only do double mono? Greetings Robby

Combined together, the FLY 3 Acoustic and FLY 103 make a 6 Watt stereo amp for guitar or music playback - perfect as a set of portable speakers or for using at home as pc speakers.
