NS Capo on fretboardView larger NS Classical Capo on fretboardView larger D'Addario/Planet Waves NS Capos The D'Addario/Planet Waves NS Capo line offers multiple innovative and easy to use options that fit a wide array of instruments and player preferences. NS Guitar Capo Pro The NS Capo Pro is constructed from aircraft grade aluminum making it rugged enough to take a beating, but keeping it very lightweight on the fretboard. Equipped with a patented micrometer for tension adjustment, the NS Capo can be dialed in to ensure the proper force is being applied to the neck of the guitar. This feature makes dealing with buzzing notes and tuning issues a thing of the past. The NS Capo Pro is ideal for use on 6 and 12 string electric and acoustic guitars. NS Guitar Capo Lite The NS Capo Lite uses a durable molded ABS thermoplastic construction to offer the most lightweight and cost effective choice. Ideal for use on all acoustic and electric 6 string guitars the NS Capo Lite can be adjusted to provide the exact tension need for your guitar. Designed for guitars with radiused fretboards, the NS Capo Lite greatly reduces the need to retune after applying your capo. NS Classical Guitar Capo The NS Classical Guitar Capo, the third option within the NS Capo line, takes the design elements of the NS Capo Pro and tailors them to fit the needs of classical guitarists. With a contoured design and a flat radius intended specifically for the wider fretboard found on most classical guitars, the NS Classical Guitar Capo delivers the sleek construction and single handed operation of the NS design. NS Capo Features Micrometer tension adjustment for buzz-free in-tune performance at every fret Single hand operation NS Capo Pro and Lite designed for acoustic and electric guitars with radiused fretboards NS Classical Guitar Capo designed for classical guitars with zero fretboard radius A patent-pending Ned Steinberger design Tuned In The importance of being able to play and stay in tune cannot be understated. With this in mind, the NS Capo design was crafted to allow every player to refine the tension the capo applies to their fretboard. This not only assures buzz-free clarity across all strings, but keeps strings from being pulled sharp by over-tensioning. In the long run this can also benefit the maintenance of your fretboard and save on upkeep.

I bought the Planet Waves Guitar Capo in black the other day, and it works great!I did a lot of shopping around because I wanted a good capo for my acoustic electric guitar, and when I came upon this one I liked the style.BENEFITS:-The Capo is screw on from the bottom, so that means you can adjust how tight it is on the strings (So you can barre chords or just silence strings).-The black looks great, and the material is nice- I don't think it could scratch the guitar neck unless you wore off the thick padding.-This could go either way, but the capo is nice and small. I was a bit surprised when I got it, but it works just fine. Would probably be easy to lose if you have a messy place though!DRAWBACKS:You can't really mount the capo on the headstock, even if you try to screw it on. The only way I can figure out to keep it on is to clamp both the top tuning key and the headstock. (Not recommended of course)OVERALL:This is a great capo. It's built well, does what it needs to do, and it looks nice. Like I said, my only gripe is that it doesn't fit on the headstock very well. Definitely recommended!

The capo is lightweight and works very well. It takes longer to move/remove than a spring clamp capo, but once in place it is secure.

Tired of restricted movement around the popular gripper capos and fret buzz with old fashioned strap capos , I spotted this lean D'Addario design with tension tightener. Oh, free movement and solid tone on all strings at last! Then "UH OH!" Hanging my guitar after my second try out but first extended use loving the experience, walking out of the room I heard a "twang" and saw my guitar rocking on the hanger--broken capo on the floor. Here's the five-star part on top of five-star loving this capo. Amazon sent me to D'Addario's website, where I found a convenient way to report it with photo to customer service, which replied within the day saying this is rare and sent notice to process a replacement, and was at my doorstep before ever expected. So impressed, my bigger priority than to grab a guitar was to write this review in deep gratitude and share how impressively D'Addario responded. Now you know, now they know I know and told you to know. Keep it up D'Addario! Thank.You!!

It fits my need as an occasion capo user. Not expensive due to being made of plastic. It works effectively and allows for tension adjustment based on your needs instead of the spring loaded ones that can overstretch strings and throw off pitch.

D'addario ns lite:This is a nice lightweight capo. Unfortunately it does not close down tight enough on thinner necked guitars, at least the one I received did not. I noticed other complaints for same issue. I like the idea of light capos as I have dropped a heavy one on an expensive acoustic and cracked the soundboard through. It has a low profile and a B7 is playable (that's how I judge a capo's profile). I like to place capo's on 7th fret and see if strings go flat or sharp and if there is any buzzing on 12-string. Its not made for a 12-string but it barely fits mine and is useable. The worm gear feels good enough to properly tighten. Had it closed down on thinner necked guitars it would initially have gotten a 5. Not sure about durability because I won't ever use it.Update: Not sure this will help but I measured at widest gap when worm gear completely screwed in, got 210mm. On first 3 frets there is not enough pressure on my Martin DC-16. But I had action lowered with next-sized larger frets and using .12s. It causes dull sound like you get when you do not have callouses built. So it may work of factory setup. It works on factory setup of an HD-28 with .12s. If the worm screw allowed proper fit I'd give this 5 stars.

Capos are one of those things that practically every picker has an opinion about - and a preference. Bluegrass guitarists tend to want to play in no more than three or four different chord positions. (In fact, many never bother learning beyond those - why bother when you've got a capo?!?!?) In fairness the bluegrass style of picking seems to work better when played in certain positions - a "G-Run" works best in, you guessed it, G position. Thus using a capo for A, B-flat, B, and so on allows us to get that same sound on up the neck.A lot of guitar players like to try every new gadget or gizmo that comes their way - even if theirs work just fine. You're apt to find an assortment of picks, tuners, and capos in my guitar case. So, my rating on THIS capo is based on what I personally want in a capo. It's probably not the best one I own, but for the price and ease of use I have to rank it high. There are other capos that work well in "clamping" the strings down, but this one just somehow suits me better. The three main things I look for in a capo are: accuracy, ease of use, and a low profile.This capo has been fairly accurate for me. In tightening, it exerts an even amount of pressure across all the strings which lessens (but doesn't necessarily eliminate) the need for re-tuning. I like to be able to reach up and move it with one hand (the spring-type capos are good for this but you have no adjustment in the amount of pressure they apply...) and with very little practice I was able to loosen, move, and re-tighten with ease. With my big hands, I need all the room I can get behind the fret - getting a B7 chord is just almost possible with this one. Some folks don't like having to put the capo in their pocket when not in use - I'm one of them, so I just slide it up beyond the nut and tighten it only enough to keep it from falling off with any sudden movements. (Be careful not to tighten it too much or you'll throw it out of tune!)Recently, a friend tried it on his guitar and it didn't work too well... We determined that his neck was made much thinner than most and the capo simply bottomed out before the strings were properly pressed down. It has worked well on my two Martin guitars though. At less than $15 it's a good value - but I probably would have stuck with my old capo if this one had been as expensive as some of the others on the market. If you need a spare this one will do the job. It might end up being your capo of choice though...*One note of caution - there are two types of these capos. This one is "curved" for steel string guitars, most of which have fingerboards with a slight radius. For a "Classical" guitar, you're likely to need the one label as such with the straight or flat bar.

Super bien, ajusta perfecto al brazo de mi guitarra acústica y a la eléctrica también! Pienso que debe tener lo suficiente para ajustarse incluso a un ukelele pero no lo he probado. Fácil de usar, buen agarre y súper práctico

When the item first arrived I removed it from the packaging and immediately grabbed my guitar. In all honesty -- despite it being a "lite" capo the item seemed far too small, and far too brittle feeling. My expectations sank as I inspected it and I started pondering whether I should have just dropped the ~$10.00 on another cheap spring clamp model.Concerns washed away quickly after it was applied and I noodled around on a few songs. Looks can be deceiving, it works great.PROS:+ Lightweight, holds very firm considering the price and lack of mass+ Simple to apply and I find the twist mechanism superior to clamp-style+ Distribution of pressure across the fretboard seems very even, coming from a spring clamp capo which needed to be moved around a lot, this is nice+ Thin (lengthwise across the playable area of fretboard), doesn't take much space allowing more room for cramped chords butted up against the barred fret you have it applied to.CONS:[will update when I find a gripe worth mentioning]MISC:* "Mighty Mouse" would be a suitable product name for this due to its diminuitive form and strong performanceFirst impressions went from good (reviews), to bad (taking item out of packaging), and back to good (using it).How it holds up, especially the strength of the clamp, is what I'm interested to see over time. Will update as necessary.

Ottimo capotasto, fa perfettamente il suo lavoro. Tuttavia, risulta essere poco adatto per una chitarra a 7 corde (non riesce a premere bene sulla corda più bassa, dato che probabilmente è fatto per chitarre a 6 corde). Inoltre, per spostarlo bisogna svitare il pomello ogni volta: per me non è affatto un proboema, per alcuni potrebbe esserlo, dipende da come si usa il capotasto.Per il resto, prodotto dai materiali molto validi!
