I bought this toy after careful and concrete comparison with others of the same category. I have been using it for a year and I am very satisfied with it. I feed it with rechargeable batteries because in this way I have complete autonomy of movement: from the armchair, to the desk, to the bedroom, to jams with friends (when there is no lockdown). The charge lasts many hours. It finds space in my suitcase and I use it to give voice to the PC when I do not have a sound system for the track of my slides. In fact the quality of the reproduction, even if it is not Hi-Fi, is more than satisfactory for me.
I have this little amp about a month and is everything you need for practice.. it's fantastic and the app for Android phone it's excellent..my blackstar ID 40 w is not my best friend anymore... fantastic little amp
First two things I thought; excellent playing in the intro Shane, and no way it sounds that good with no added help. The gear you can get now for the price is just light years ahead of what crap was available when I started. Yes Shane, do the shoot-out please.

And... SOLD! I need a new work amp to play in my lab and this sounds perfect. Thanks! Now off to watch Landon's review. Great review as always and killer track to open the video.
Wow!!!! The tones from the intro jam rocked!!! For $99 it’s a steal!!! The drum machine/ metronome makes this little amp the perfect practice amp!!!! I’d trade my GT 40 for this one in a heartbeat!!! Cheers Shane!!!🎸🎸🎸🤙🏾🤙🏾🤘🏽
I just got this. It is stupid cool! Only $100 on Amazon. Sounds huge. Linked to the iPhone app with ease. Comes with its own 9 V power supply. Clean channel is my favorite. This is a must have!
That guitar is killer. The sounds on that lead along with the playing was freaking amazing and nailed it nice. Very very good way to show off a product. You did them a Huge favor. Wow. Thanks Shane.
At 3:17 ... it reminds me of the Blackstar Fly 3 as others have mentioned. But NUX have taken it a step further with the phone app. Thumbs up for that.
After seeing the Nu-X Mighty Lite capabilities, I asked Blackstar (I have a couple of their excellent ID amps) about the prospects of an Android app. The reply was nothing ruled out but nothing currently in the works. So, that pushed me to the Mighty Lite and away from the Blackstar Fly.
Very cool demo and some great playing in that intro song. It's awesome to see Mooer, NUX, Donner, and some of these other offshore companies making really cool and competitive new stuff and not just cheap copies of other stuff. I have a Blackstar Fly 3... And now I want one of these instead. 👍
This is fantastic! Even clean it’s impressive and sparkly. I’d like to see some more clean tones or more in depth at how it responds to dynamics in picking or changes in the guitars volume. Thanks!
Thanks for the demo, great work as always! 😁👍 Some of these mini amps are indeed impressive. I have a Katana Mini, which is very nice, but my main go to small amp is now the Vox Pathfinder 10 B. It’s fantastic, the 2 speakers give it a big amp sound at low volumes, but it can rattle the windows when I want to as well. Sounds great with guitar, or bass, it’s perfect for nighttime playing, and situations where I don’t want to lug my AC-15 around. It doesn’t have a battery option, but I don’t need that anyway.
Great review ! Mini amps with drum machines are rare , These are best for practice ! A similar portable amp with almost same specs with Awesome HUGE tone is the VOX Rythym 5 wich i have - Highly recommended for busking too !
The ability to dial in so many sounds via phone or tablet..!!! Hey I know you're super busy but damn..😮 I live on the beach and I'm often down on the beach playing guitar on my blackstar fly & this sounds like it totally and thoroughly annihilates something like the fly..🤔 Any additional feedback would be most welcome Shane.... Super super impressed...!!!
The great advantage of the Fly 3 system is that you can hook it up to your laptop and you have a quality stereo sound. I prefer that to a drum machine and a couple of effects. The NUX sounds good.
Great review man! LOL, you were having too much fun with the drum machine! I have a couple of NUX pedals and they’re really good at packing a lot into their products. If they really wanna crush the Boss and Blackstar, they should include a Bluetooth guitar transmitter and go completely wireless! How cool would that be?? 🤙🏻😎🎸
Nice demo mate - You're easily amused with the drums. Should have got slosh to pop him for the metal drums ;) While you were demo'ing those - was it actually called ballard?? The app needs a wheel or slider for the tempo. For $149AUD, sound wise it's ok. The cleans sound better than the overdrives. But size is great for throwing in an overnight bag. Wouldn't mind seeing a shootout between this and Mooer. Use the dB meter as well!
Yes sir awsome, so I got one, it broke down in two weeks, so did the next one.. Sounded great, but not very long time :) I got a Fly 3 and for extra fun a Boss Katana mini, bouth super good.. play loooooong time ..ps It was not the batteries :)
Hey Shane! How are you feeling about that PureSalem? I fall in love with it all over again every time you use it. Are you still feeling positively about it? Love your videos man. The amp is very cool!
Does anyone know if you can listen to Spotify etc using the Bluetooth or is it only for the app? I am looking for a great little amp where I can practice, and also use it to listen to good quality music throug Bluetooth.
I'm thinking if I piggyback this through the headphones out into my fly 3 with extension speaker bumping it up to 6 Watts... Forget about it.... Imagine being on the beach with your guitar and all that capability...😮
Great practice amp ! I noticed that you don t smother strings with your left palm when you soloing . You will sound much cleaner if you smother strings! That s not critics, just an observation because I like your always fresh rewiew ! Cheers from Croatia!
That's a very nice device and it would meet much more than my needs. But... Due to the low cost components (especially potentiometers, connectors and capacitors), I' worried about its durability. And, when it will be broken or with malfunctions, the only way to repair it will be to completely change the electronic board, if available. Chances are that a new amp would cost less than to repair the broken one. :-((((
Hi i have that NUX MIGHTY LITE BT AMP and i think its AWESOME but i also have a NUX MG-100 MODELLING GUITAR PROCESSOR so i was thinking of hooking them both up togather and see what i get ??????
Sounds great. Quick questions, how does it compare to the Boss Katana Mini? Is one louder? Which would you say is better for a bedroom guitarist? Can the NUX plug directly into the computer for recording purposes?
So half the features rely on the app ? And Nux probably won't update it after a year or two. Anyone who has been around phones or PCs for a while knows that you might go on being able to use an app for a few years, but sooner or later it will no longer work under the new OS, or just doesn't work on your new phone for some other reason. Some things like USB last longer because backward compatibility is maintained. But don't count on it for devices like this. So keep your old phone if you want all this amp's features to be use-able longer than a few years (until your phone dies !). But maybe this is deliberate inbuilt obsolescence, and Nux hopes you will just throw the amp away and buy the new one that does work with your new phone.
@@intheblues aha so only over microphone..but is that a good option at least? (Mic into mixer) I really fancy this application and stuff looks like it could replace all the pedals and stuff easily.
Is it possibe to import tones/presets into the app from a library online? And is it possible to play along with other Music playing app (TH-cam etc.) ?
I recently bought the Nux headphone amp. One "complaint" I have is that the different channels only present amps and effects appropriate to the channel name. In other words, you can't put a clean patch anywhere but in the clean channel. Does this amp have the same limitation?
Hi. I've got the Nux Mighty Plug as well and it's really convenient. The firmware has been updated since this video so its a little different but the only way I can see to do what you want is to overwrite an unused preset. I haven't really tried it yet but there's a third party app called Mightier Amp which might be worth looking at and seen very popular with users.
Google it. It's a much debated science. The idea is to have a room floating inside a room, touching as little as possible which would transfer the noise.As Ben Hackett said, it's expensive. I once saw a quote for $20,000 for a 10' x 12' room. I sound TREATED a room which meant having double walls with a gap between them created by metal spacers. Unless you're a pro, I can't imagine needing better than that in your home. I've had a three piece band in here, playing LOUD and people in the rest of the house could barely hear it. Any decent builder should be able to do it for you.
Pretty good sound for such a small amp. I'd love to take that thing with me on travel.... but I am sure I would piss off all my "neighbors" at the hotel. Does it not come with a power cord? Silly if it doesn't. Beats my headphone amp that's for sure.
It runs off a usb power bank or batteries. Surely you have a power bank...I think it does come with a mains cord though. I just run it off power bank though.
@@GregRickard After watching Lando27's revies I can see it does come with a cable. I'ts not that we all don't have the things to power it with. I just though it would be silly if it didn't come with one. I stand corrected.
@@BeardedBluesDude Its very economical on power. I can't be bothered plugging in an adaptor haha. I guess its not designed to be used at home anyway. Usually you'd have something nicer at home if you're plugging in. It sounds nice miked up but make no mistake, its gets nasty after a while and sounds nothing like a Yamaha THR10 etc
Greg Rickard I've got a Bandit and a little Marshall at home yet I find myself plugged into my Nu-X Mighty Air (10W version of this) 90% of the time. I just love it!

Great with headphones too and the wireless setup that comes on the Mighty Air is fantastic for avoiding clutter-particularly hand when you have a neat-freak for a better half. ;)
@@intheblues Mine came with one so yes you can use a wall plug. It also has Aux output for head phones. It can also be used as a bluetooth speaker from your phones and you can stream and play along with your backing tracks or even your fave songs. Its a bloody great little amp.

Thankyou for showing the App settings while you were playing. Very helpful.
Cool ! Looks like the Blackstar Fly3 and this are made by the same factory ! Great demo Shane ,thanks mate !
How can you state that? I'm VERY curious... Thanks!
I own a Blackstar Fly, it's almost the same, also very happy with the little practice Amp!
Hi Aron 1! How is the sound between this and Fly 3? I am thinking between these two.
NuX doing some great stuff! I have the Solid Studio and the Atlantic pedal. Great quality and tones!
At 3:17 ... it reminds me of the Blackstar Fly 3 as others have mentioned. But NUX have taken it a step further with the phone app. Thumbs up for that.

Really Great Guitar Playing! Excited to try one of these little Amp's out.
Sweet little amp. Thank you for the time you spent on this review!
Great little amp, Great playing, Great Pure Salem guitar 👍
Thanks Dvid. That guitar rocks. :-)
That's amazing and really appreciate your channel!
Ripping opening jam, Shane!! Great sounding little amp. The Mendiola(sp?) kills!!
best opening jam youve ever done, holy shit that was good
Thanks so much mate.
Nice review Shane! Strange to actually see you punt a product, yes you did, you enjoyed this one 😁

Great amp!
I love that guitar!!!
Damn that intro song though! 💥💥💥 Sounded remarkable for a micro amp. Top stuff. 👍

Very cool piece of gear Shane! I just checked the price on Amazon. Amazing value IMO.
Your review made me go buy one..! Woohoo cheers 👍
Wow that is awesome. I was loving my Ammoon PockAmp, bit this thing rocks for a portable amp!
That sounds fantastic , just what I need for home practice !
Bet they don't send one out for me to try though !
Got one on it way, thanks for the review 👍
It arrived... What a great little bit of technology... Plenty of tones and plenty loud enough!
The ability to dial in so many sounds via phone or tablet..!!!

I'm impressed with the Marshall Code 25. It does take some time to dial in a tone but worth it. This NUX does sound good; need to find and try.
What a cool little amp!!
Nice tones
It's ALWAYS been NU-X! They make some good stuff! Some of their bigger amps are really good for the $!
VERY impressive~!
Awesome drum machine faces 😎
Very cool. This mini amp seems to me very similar to the blackstar fly3
Its great to see the host from hot ones is british now and expanding his horizons congrats sean. 😂
Very nice!
This DS guitar has a really good design ! ... and sounds good by the way ;-)
Nice riffs and phrasing Shane.. that little amp puts out some beefy lead tone..
Great review man! LOL, you were having too much fun with the drum machine! I have a couple of NUX pedals and they’re really good at packing a lot into their products. If they really wanna crush the Boss and Blackstar, they should include a Bluetooth guitar transmitter and go completely wireless! How cool would that be?? 🤙🏻😎🎸

I guess they listened to you. Nux Mighty Air :-)

sounds great
NUX nux, bo-bux, Banana-Fanna Fo..... oops. :) just kidding. My fav mini amp. great little machine!
I envy any of your lefty guitar. Very hard to get 1 here in my country
Yes sir awsome, so I got one, it broke down in two weeks, so did the next one.. Sounded great, but not very long time :) I got a Fly 3 and for extra fun a Boss Katana mini, bouth super good.. play loooooong time ..ps It was not the batteries :)
I've got one. Pretty cool. I keep it in the car with a lead. If i feel inclined, i grab an ax and go to a park.
Where can i get this..?? How much did you pay..??
Your intonation sounds great Shane. Are you using a strobe type tuner?
Great demo! Did you use an external looper at the beginning of the video?
Hey Shane! How are you feeling about that PureSalem? I fall in love with it all over again every time you use it. Are you still feeling positively about it? Love your videos man. The amp is very cool!
Ok this one I'm buying. I hope it's still in stock for $100 delivered
Shane cuts loose. Great video, great playing
I can see a wall of these Nutz amps now!!!!
That red guitar sound amazing and look great, which brand it is ???
Does anyone know if you can listen to Spotify etc using the Bluetooth or is it only for the app? I am looking for a great little amp where I can practice, and also use it to listen to good quality music throug Bluetooth.
Very cool!!
How about a comparison with katana mini
I'm thinking if I piggyback this through the headphones out into my fly 3 with extension speaker bumping it up to 6 Watts... Forget about it.... Imagine being on the beach with your guitar and all that capability...😮
please rate your experience without the cell phone. I am still resistant to get one. thanks for all the grrreat videos.
Phone makes changing the reverbs easier etc but you can use it without a phone.
@@intheblues thanks!
Shane, would you recommend this over the Boss Katana Mini? Keep up the great videos.
DS: coolest, weirdest guitar of all time and space. :)
It's left handed
Ballard? As in RUSS Ballard from Argent?
It's "new ex" like the woman who just found out you ordered another guitar amp.
😆 hahaha no doubt

How to save tones ?
Sweet
Sounds great. Quick questions, how does it compare to the Boss Katana Mini? Is one louder? Which would you say is better for a bedroom guitarist? Can the NUX plug directly into the computer for recording purposes?
Does it have pitch shift effect?
Single coil did NOT work with this amp. Not to my ears anyway. But a great video Shane 👍🎸

can u play it with a bass?
what do u think is better, this amp or the Mooer Hornet 15?
Can a bass guitar be directly plugged into it?
Probably not mate, the speaker wouldn't handle that very well would be my guess.
@@intheblues that's true... I realized that the NUX may not have a high enough impedence to handle a bass guitar.
SHANE O !!
That ugly offset guitar is beautiful!
Is there a way to use this in a gig as a head thru cabinet or similar??
Not really no. You might be able to rig up the headphone socket to a powered speaker or mixer, but nothing directly.
@@intheblues aha so only over microphone..but is that a good option at least? (Mic into mixer) I really fancy this application and stuff looks like it could replace all the pedals and stuff easily.
how about its weight
How does it stack up to the Katana Mini? Which I love by the way!
Ballard?
Hey there. I have some serious buzzing with the nux amp. Any suggestions to solve this? And the app backing tracks does not play via the amp.
Your a lefty , me too what kind of guitar is that red one?
Do you need batteries or you can power it just by a charger?
Either works
Is it possibe to import tones/presets into the app from a library online?
And is it possible to play along with other Music playing app (TH-cam etc.) ?
