Blackstar 3 CHARGE Overview

Building on the incredible success of the FLY 3 Bluetooth, the FLY 3 CHARGE from Blackstar is a highly portable 2-channel, 3W mini amp and speaker, now upgraded with a USB-C rechargeable internal battery for up to 18 hours of use for any guitarists on vacation, on tour, or simply looking to practice anywhere. The FLY 3 CHARGE features all of the great features from the Fly Bluetooth including a patented Infinite Shape Feature (ISF) for achieving tonal profiles ranging from USA to UK to everywhere in between, and a built-in stereo tape delay effect.

The FLY 3 CHARGE sports a 3.5mm MP3/line input for listening or jamming along with music, and an emulated speaker output, which simulates the dynamic response of a real tube-powered cabinet for recording or silent practice. The Bluetooth compatibility keeps you connected to your favorite tracks for practice or when using the FLY 3 as a portable speaker, and a FLY 103 cable connector is on the back for hooking up a FLY 103 cabinet, instantly creating a portable 6W stereo speaker setup.

The Perfect Practice Companion
The FLY 3 is designed to be an ideal practice companion that can be taken nearly anywhere. The speaker combo can be powered by it's internal battery for up to 18 hours of fun or indefinitely via convenient USB-C bus power. The 3W speaker provides enough power to hear yourself even when playing on the street, while a dedicated stereo headphone out with realistic speaker emulation lets you practice in silence. The flexible I/O built into the FLY 3 makes it easy to use the system either as a guitar practice and performance tool or simply as a portable speaker for streaming your favorite music via Bluetooth and a handy 3.5mm input.
Intuitive Controls
The FLY 3 uses simple yet powerful controls to make the process of dialing in your preferred tone a hassle-free process. Gain control is provided for both the clean and OD channels, along with master volume. ISF allows you to choose the exact tonal signature you prefer, with the ability to choose between USA—with a tight bottom end and more aggressive middle—to UK—with a more woody and less aggressive tone, as well as everything inbetween. Delay level and time controls are also provided for fine tuning the included tape-delay effect.
Expandable System
A unique feature of the FLY 3 system is the inclusion of a proprietary FLY 103 connector in the rear of the speaker. This allows you to connect a FLY 103 external speaker cabinet to your FLY 3, creating a fully portable, stereo, 6W speaker system. Like the FLY 3, the FLY 103 can be battery powered and provides a quick and easy solution for a Bluetooth-enabled stereo sound system that can be used nearly anywhere.

Blackstar 3 CHARGE Reviews

Great amp

By Jordan
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2022-12-26

Perfect size, just enough distortion and overdrive to practice anything you need to and still has good clarity, Sounds great through headphones, Takes 2 1/2 hours to charge from low battery, then lasts 18 hours. I haven't clocked how many hours I get yet but even half of that to me is great. All in all, I'm Very satisfied with the purchase and impressed B&H were the first ones to have it and ship it immediately.

Blackstone used to make a Fly 3 Acoustic version. Will this take its place and perform similarly?
Asked by: Frank
The Blackstar FLY 3 CHARGE 3W Mini Rechargeable Guitar Amplifier with Bluetooth is not a replacement for the Blackstar FLY 103 Acoustic amplifier, as it is designed for electric guitar only. If an acoustic guitar is connected to it, you may experience feedback issues.
