G7th Performance 3 6 String Gold Plate Guitar Capo - Groundbreaking Tension Control & Adaptive Radius Technology - The Perfect Capo for Acoustic Guitar and Electric Guitar, UK Designed Excellence

It's actually very good. I was a bit sceptical about the claim to keep things in tune, but it does work according to my tuner. Very easy to put on and release. It has a slim profile so doesnt get in the way when playing. Personally I think it's worth the money. It locks in place securely on the top of the headstock too, so easy to keep with the guitar when not in use. The only potential issue is it fits a standard guitar up to about fret 10. This is fine for most people as you'd not go higher than this, but if you have a slightly wider fret board or a vintage guitar that is wider than normal (not fatter, wider) then you may find it doest fit properly over the high e string earlier than fret 10. For the ease of putting it on and that it actually does keep the tuning correct on all strings, I'd recommend it.

I’ve only ever used spring-action capos and, while they’re easy to use and pretty cheap, I’ve recently been getting frustrated with how often I’m having to retune when using my capo. I’ve also noticed a lot of buzzing when you put a capo anywhere past the fifth fret. This capo, however, has completely resolved those issues! Zero buzzing or going out of tune, all from an easy-to-use, well-built and low-profile capo. It’s not the cheapest but it’s not the most expensive kind of capo out there either and, for my money, it’s easily the best and probably going to save needless fretboard repairs in the long run!

If you don't want to read my narrative below, I'll start with a summary:- Pros:- i) Keeps guitar in tune better when in use than most of the others I have; ii) Sturdy build; iii) Unobtrusive and compact - gets less in the way of your fingers when using the lowest fret nearest the capo; iv) Minimal string rattle and maintains a reasonable tone, again in contrast to some capos I have; v) Doesn't seem to damage the finish on the guitar; vi) Very easy to use - just squeeze to put it on and use the release catch to remove. Cons:- i) Far more expensive than any other capo I've bought! ii) Can't be operated with one hand.# iii) Probably pretty easy to lose! I've owned many types of capo over the years. I've never been a huge fan of using them and would generally prefer to learn a song in a different key so it could be played without the capo and thus keep the bass notes as low as possible. This has not been much of an option for me lately, as I've been performing songs at a local pub and forced out of my comfort zone by having to sing the songs I'm playing, myself! I haven't had much time in between appearances and therefore found it useful to just use a capo so I can sing the song in question and make it manageable in my limited vocal range (when in the past I've been lucky enough to have proper vocalists to accompany and just played in the original keys). It has saved me having to re-learn songs in another key. I am not a good enough guitarist to just change keys on the fly. Until recently, I didn't realise that all capos are essentially not made equal! I know that it's often helpful to tune your guitar with the capo on rather than off, but didn't realise that some, like this one, are better at keeping everything in tune. It is very easy to put on and remove. It doesn't get in the way of certain chord shapes played at the nut-end of the neck as much as other capos I have. My Shubb is also very compact and similarly unobtrusive. I have a number of trigger capos and some of them can get in the way. This was considerably more expensive than the capos I've bought in the past, but as I've been regularly playing and singing of late, I thought it was worth splurging for the improved tone, minimal string rattle and maintaining as much accuracy of tuning as possible. Recommended if you're willing to part with the cash!

Beautifully engineered & designed – in your hand, you just sense its sheer quality. A quick squeeze action, and it is doing its job. Easy release too. The problem with many spring/clamp, or screw pressure setting, capos, is that they tend to over clamp – by applying far too much pressure, they pull the strings back towards them, causing tuning issues. This brilliantly conceived capo has definitely engineered its way around this problem. HOWEVER, while this capo applies just the right pressure on an electric, I do not think it suitable for many (or even most) acoustic guitars, where its string stopping pressure is too weak. Its strength with electrics is its weakness with acoustics. Hence ⭐ ⭐⭐⭐s . Just my personal experience. (Although other comments on here refer to the G7th Performance 3 applying insufficient pressure on their acoustics.)

Brilliant capo. I had used Dunlop capos for years and thought they were great, until I got one of these. I honestly will not use another brand from now on, and I highly doubt I would need to buy another one unless I lose this. It fits my guitar neck perfectly and I get ZERO FRET BUZZ, which was always and issue previously, especially on the thicker E string. It grips as hard as you squeeze it on and the release mechanism is great and easy to use too. There is no spring from what I can see so there are no worries about the strength of the spring. It goes on as hard as you squeeze it. Great bit of kit.

While not perfect, this is hands-down the best capo I've used. Given the build quality and lifetime warranty, it just about justifies the cost. My old Shubb is fussy about necks, buzzes, requires me to re-tune, doesn't like string bends, and takes an age to set-up. The G7th reduces all of those problems, as much as I think it's possible to do so. You do, however, need to spend a day or two getting used to using it. I used it with a range of neck profiles (including Gibson 50s-style "baseball bat", modern compound radius, etc.) and have been very happy with results. After a few days' use, I found it quick and easy to deploy and it requires little, if any tuning adjustment. I did at first get occasional "dead" strings, but found this reduced as I got used to the pressure required, where to position it, etc. Best of all, it's possible to bend strings without putting it out of tune, or physically displacing the string under the capo. Reading other reviews it's clear some folks expect nothing short of magic, and to be fair G7th do make bold claims. The truth, of course, is that there are physical limits to how good a capo can be, and you do have to invest a little time in learning how to get the best from it.

The g7th performance 3 is an excellent bit of kit. Straight out of the box it's very easy to get to grips with. The mechanism is very intuitive and easy to use. The adaptive radius technology seems to work perfectly, no string buzz at all. Most importantly I would like to highlight how good this capo is at keeping the guitar in tune. Never have I had a capo that has managed to capo up to the 9th fret and the guitar still be in tune. It truly is a masterful piece of engineering. OK now the (supposed) downside. It is on the expensive side in the capo market. But in everything you get what you pay for. If you have multiple guitars it will work on all of them, at gigs less time is wasted having to retune every time you move the capo, the most innovative design for years, the list goes on for reasons why this isn't really that expensive.

Not a bad capo, just not quite up to it IMO. Seemed to do just about all it should as per the hype - kept the strings in tune, no buzz etc and relatively easy to attach and remove but I found the top (open) end of the capo to have a sharpish bit which was uncomfortable and dug into my medium-sized hand for certain chords, B7 in particular. Tried it on both electric and acoustic steel-strung instruments. Sad to say I felt it to be overpriced, with the above in mind I have returned it. My quest continues.

It's ok, But I feel like I'm just justifying it because I spent too much on it, I think the rubber surface that presses on the strings should be a bit harder to have a better hold on the notes

Compact en handig. Werkt goed (en snel) + zit niet in de weg bij bepaalde akkoorden

Buzzes more than half the time. My Dunlop trigger fly does the job much better at half the price, almost always right each time.

Good solid easy and nice looking capo

Très bien pour guitare folk 6 cordes
