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.
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!
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!!!🎸🎸🎸🤙🏾🤙🏾🤘🏽
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.
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.

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.
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!
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?? 🤙🏻😎🎸
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 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.
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 (RUclips 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.
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 ??????
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!
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 :)
@@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.
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...😮
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.
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. :-((((
@@intheblues That's awesome!! Was hoping it was something you found online. Would have been great to get it and to jam along to!! How do you think it compares to the Boss Mini Katana?
Reminds me superficially of my blackstar fly minus the extension cab..🤔 Curious to know does it blow something like that away. Sure sounds like it does & three channels forget about it..!!! Seriously get back to me please..Shane..🙏
@@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.
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.

Just bought one of these for my son as a result of your review, fantastic amp.
Thanks a lot glad you like it! 😀👍
Just came across one today and picked it up. Amazing little amp. So many possibilities. Great demo!
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.
Thanks a lot Nick! This is a little ripper of an amp I am going to try it on a live stream coming up too :-)
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.
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.
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.

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!
NuX doing some great stuff! I have the Solid Studio and the Atlantic pedal. Great quality and tones!

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. :-)
Your intros are getting better and better man :D
Thanks a lot! If they were getting worse I'd be in serious trouble haha.
Really Great Guitar Playing! Excited to try one of these little Amp's out.
That's amazing and really appreciate your channel!
best opening jam youve ever done, holy shit that was good
Thanks so much mate.
Cool little amp and some awesome playing man, sounds great!
Nice review Shane! Strange to actually see you punt a product, yes you did, you enjoyed this one 😁

Wow sounds mighty..🤔 Totally blown away..!!!
Damn that intro song though! 💥💥💥 Sounded remarkable for a micro amp. Top stuff. 👍
Thanks a lot 😃

Great amp!
I love that guitar!!!
Ripping opening jam, Shane!! Great sounding little amp. The Mendiola(sp?) kills!!
Your review made me go buy one..! Woohoo cheers 👍
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!
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!
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 !
It's ALWAYS been NU-X! They make some good stuff! Some of their bigger amps are really good for the $!
VERY impressive~!
Wow that is awesome. I was loving my Ammoon PockAmp, bit this thing rocks for a portable amp!
Very cool piece of gear Shane! I just checked the price on Amazon. Amazing value IMO.
Awesome drum machine faces 😎
What a cool little amp!!
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.
That sounds fantastic , just what I need for home practice !
Bet they don't send one out for me to try though !
Nice tones
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....

NUX nux, bo-bux, Banana-Fanna Fo..... oops. :) just kidding. My fav mini amp. great little machine!
Its great to see the host from hot ones is british now and expanding his horizons congrats sean. 😂
sounds great
Very cool. This mini amp seems to me very similar to the blackstar fly3
This DS guitar has a really good design ! ... and sounds good by the way ;-)
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?? 🤙🏻😎🎸
Behringer too!
I guess they listened to you. Nux Mighty Air :-)
LOL, I see that! Too funny!
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?
Great demo! Did you use an external looper at the beginning of the video?
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.
Nice riffs and phrasing Shane.. that little amp puts out some beefy lead tone..
Your intonation sounds great Shane. Are you using a strobe type tuner?
Shane, would you recommend this over the Boss Katana Mini? Keep up the great videos.
Does it have pitch shift effect?
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.
Very cool!!
How about a comparison with katana mini
I envy any of your lefty guitar. Very hard to get 1 here in my country
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 (RUclips etc.) ?
How to save tones ?

hey nice vid, have you tried the headphone jack for silent playing? mines only the left channel of the headphone is working,
That red guitar sound amazing and look great, which brand it is ???
Shane cuts loose. Great video, great playing
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
Ballard? As in RUSS Ballard from Argent?
Nice demo mate - You're easily amused with the drums. Should have got slosh to pop him for the metal drums ;)

Wouldn't mind seeing a shootout between this and Mooer. Use the dB meter as well!
what do u think is better, this amp or the Mooer Hornet 15?
Hi, may be do you know if there is a footswitch to use with this little amp?
Javier Villagran no
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 :)
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.
Your a lefty , me too what kind of guitar is that red one?
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.
I can see a wall of these Nutz amps now!!!!
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...😮
How do you sound proof a room?
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'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..??
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!
Do you need batteries or you can power it just by a charger?
Either works
DS: coolest, weirdest guitar of all time and space. :)
It's left handed
It's "new ex" like the woman who just found out you ordered another guitar amp.
😆 hahaha no doubt
Sweet
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!
can u play it with a bass?

I write my and record my own backing tracks.

@@CarolinaLandshark The Katana mini is pretty cool but I think this sounds better from what I can remember. It has a much fatter sound for its size.

can you play a bass guitar throw this amp
That ugly offset guitar is beautiful!

Sounds amazing..😮
I haven't tried a Blackstar fly but I think Lando27Music put a video up comparing them.
how about its weight
Will it run off a wall plug? The. Volume sounds like it would drive you out of a bedroom.😁
You need a 9vDC power supply (500mA) so yes but it doesn't come with one.
@@intheblues bummer.ill buy one of those too iguess.😁. It's always something else youneed.
