D'Addario NS Classical Guitar Capo, Black

Long enough to cover all the strings on a classical guitar neck. Easy to place and tighten. Easy to reposition on guitar neck. Good price, good quality, and works very well.

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!

I purchased a Classical guitar and only had a traditional (steel string) Capo available to me. Not thinking it through I used it on my Nylon Stings and after a few times I realized it had damaged the string to the point they had to be replaced. Along with my string order I added this Capo so it does not happen again. Pros: It's small and lightweight. It's very well made. It not only looks great but also appear to be of high quality. It's very adjustable. Unlike my steel string Capo, this uses a screw/knob to tighten, not spring loaded. This allows you to finely tune the capo to add just enough pressure to bar the fret but not damage the stings. It works on steel strings. Yep, I found my self needing a Capo on another guitar and only having this with me, I saw no reason it should not work so I gave it a try and it performed wonderfully. I won't be using it full time on my steel strings, but great to know in a pinch I have use it. If you need a great capo thats gentle on your Nylon strings then this is the one to get.

I have used a lot of capos, and this one works better than all of them. Super easy to use. I rarely have to retune when I put it on or when I remove it. I bought the classical version (which is slightly longer to accommodate the wider fretboard) so that I could use it on my nylon string guitars as well as my acoustics. Works perfectly on both styles. Also works on my banjo, mandolin, and ukulele. (Update: I ended up buying the acoustic version too. I have am electric guitar with a small radius neck, and the classical capo was putting more pressure on the middle strings. Definitely worth having both!)

While having an adjustable feature is nice for maintaining accurate tuning, I find myself using my Kyser more often than this guy. The Kyser is much faster and works great. This PW capo is great too, just not as quick to switch. ...I know I'm sounding lazy but lifetime Kyser users will reiterate my comment. I will say though, this capo has a very low profile. There is nothing to get in the way of fretting the lowest notes...great in that respect. I will continue to use this on my classical guitar (my Kyser is a steel string capo) but will unlikely use it much on my steel string because the Kyser is more convenient.

I don't have a classical guitar, but I just got an inexpensive but really fun steel string guitar with a non-radiused fingerboard. I've also got over a dozen capos (don't ask!) but all are for radiused fingerboards. The fingerboards of most steel-string guitars--electric and acoustic--are radiused, that is, they are not flat. They have a gentle curve to them, so gentle that many wouldn't notice it unless they looked closely. Look up "fingerboard" in the Wikipedia for an excellent discussion and Google images for diagrams and pictures. Even though the curve is gentle, if a fingerboard is radiused, a capo must be curved, too, or the outside strings would not be pressed down properly and would buzz. If a fingerboard is flat, like a classical guitar's, the capo must be flat, too, or the center strings will not be pressed down properly and will buzz. If you're not sure whether your guitar's fingerboard is radiused, slide a ruler between two frets. If it lies flat, then so is the fingerboard. If it rocks, the fingerboard is radiused. I REALLY like this capo because of the way pressure is adjusted by turning the tension screw. This makes it possible to exert just the right amount of pressure--not tool little, which would cause strings to buzz, and not too much, which would cause the instrument to go out of tune. As others have noted, its one drawback is that it can't be clamped to the headstock when not in use. But for that, I'd replace most of my capos with radiused versions of this capo. HIGHLY recommended!

I was a bit concerned to buy this for a classical guitar because at least one of the reviews said it "couldn't possibly fit". However, when the capo arrived, it fit perfectly on my Cordoba C9, with room to spare as you can see in the picture. Radius fretboards (which aren't common- and the only reason this capo wouldn't fit) require a completely different style of capo-- but if you have a TRADITIONAL CLASSICAL GUITAR, you're in the right place. The sturdy aluminum capo protects your guitar with foam padding on the top and sides. I can't say enough good things about this capo-- it has a low profile, doesn't get in the way of playing, it's super-easy to use and change frets, and the low cost is the icing on the cake! If you need a capo for your classical guitar, look no further!

This used to be the greatest capo ever, back when the models said "planet waves" on them. Now they say "D'Addario" on them and they're just not as smooth. I didn't realize this so I ordered two thinking they would be like my original one I bought last year. When you crank them down the dial is much harder to turn. After you've turned it very tight I still get some slight rattling compared to my first one (compared one after the other on every fret). Looking at the hinge bolts, it is a different model. Other than that it is the superior classical capo. Please fix!!!!!!!!

Różne miałem kapodastry, ale tak dobrego nigdy. Jest to wyrób bardzo dobrej jakości i bardzo wygodny w grze. Zakłada się nieco mniej wygodnie niż sprężynowe, ale łatwo. Jestem bardzo zadowolony.

Leicht zu handhaben, funktioniert einwandfrei ( getestet bis zum 7'ten Bund) auch bei älteren Konzertgitarren mit dickerem Hals. Preis ist auch ok, darum in meinen Augen 100 % empfehlenswert.

Ce capodastre à un avantage incontestable : il est léger et rigide. De plus, son système de serrage est parfait et très facile à mettre en oeuvre. Je le recommande à tous les guitaristes qui hésitent encore !

軽くて、弦を押さえた感じも良いですし、見た感じも最高です。

Chulada, no lastima el brazo, su polímeros silencia las cuerdas perfectamente. Si tocas frecuentemente tiene una duración de 3 años aproximadamente
