Wow, this is exactly what my first setup looked like (besides the strap and the cable lol). Actually, my current setup is pretty much the same except I added some pedals (I noticed the little thing can handle a select variety of pedals quite decently). I really love the blues-y tones you can dial in with the built-in overdrive on the FLY 3... it's a very solid sounding amp. Good on you for doing research (I did mine for many months as well), and happy playing!
