Does the job
Massie 02.03.2022
U cant just snap it on, you have to tighten etc. That means you cant just slide the capo around the fretboard. But once it's on. It's solid.

Good backup capo
Alan Joseph 05.06.2021
I use this capo as a backup and it does the job. However, the design pulls the strings to one side and you have to be careful when putting it on. I have a couple of G7 capos which I mainly use but to take to the beach or as a backup it does the job. It is also pretty quick and easy to put on and take off, no fiddling with screws or elastic bands.

Not good
SJef 13.08.2020
The capo just feels flimsy and feels like it will break, it doesn't even do its job good.

It is cheap...
Viper2097 24.02.2014
... but it works.
Quality is ok, but the system is not really the best. Useing it on my electric and it works. However, its everytime a litte fight to open and remove it again.
So, it is cheap, it works and it is not the best. If you need a capo from time to time, it is the right one for you, if you need it every day, go for another one.

In a pinch, it gets the job done :)
Jenna 20.03.2015
There are no doubt many better capos out there... I have collected quite a few over the years, but this is actually pretty good for a tiny cost. You do need to take care when tightening it because it has a tendency to pull the strings over to one side of the neck if you don't.

Basically, the advice is to put downward pressure onto the capo to hold it steady whilst you pinch it up tight with the other hand, then you're good to go.

I do notice a tonal difference compared to say, the Shubb, Paige and Planet Waves NS design. This can be a good or a bad thing, depending on your personal opinion.


In conclusion, a nice uncomplicated design that works well once you get the hang of it and it is very unlikely to damage your guitar.

Holds the strings very well
Anonymous 24.04.2014
It is a good capo. The material, although plastic is very durable. Holds the strings very well, which allows to obtain the desired tuning without any problem. I've used different guitars, like a lot..
