Stiff but tough January 13, 2008
By Beejhou

This is a solidly constructed bit of kit. It doesn't feel like its going to break any time soon. I've used it on my electric and acoustic and it works very nicely on both. Good cushioning ensures no marks or scratches even if you're a little rough taking it off. On the down side, it is very stiff to open. I had hoped it would ease up with use but is still taking no prisoners. I often have difficulty getting it onto the guitar. I would not recommend this if you are buying for a child, elderly or not so strong in the hands. I would also not recommend it if you are planning to use your capo on stage- it can lead to some embarrasing pauses whilst you wrestle with it!

Works great on my Ovation acoustic/electric. As other reviewer's have said, you do have to squeeze it a little hard open it, but it's not really an issue. Most guitar players have well developed muscles in their left hand anyway.

I know most people would look at this and think for the price it can't be that great. But it does everything a capo should do and well. I've had no trouble with it coming apart, and if it does, I guarantee I will replace it with the exact same one. You absolutely cannot go wrong for the price.

This is the second capo I ever purchased. My first one was something that had some sort of a belt (don't ask). Read more

This capo is not crapo
I may be a guitar newbie, but as far as I can tell - this capo is not a fake-o piece of crapo!

Really Nice
This capo is firmly constructed and feels like it will last a long time. I liked the capo so much that I purchased two of them.

Works Great!
I bought this guitar capo a few months ago and have been using it almost everyday. You can tell it's a really good quality because it keeps its strength after many uses.

Excellent!
This thing is awesome. Don't listen to the people who say it is too hard to open. Yes it is a little difficult, but it also means it is not breaking anytime soon. Read more
