Guitar Capo Deluxe for Acoustic Guitars, Ukulele, Banjo, Mandolin, Bass - Made of Premium Quality Zinc Alloy for 6 & 12 String Instruments - Luxury Accessories by Nordic Essentials

This Capo is extremely well-made of high-quality metal. Although the advertisement claims it is made of premium quality, zinc, I never expected. It would be good when I ordered it. For that matter, it is absolutely great value for money. I am very impressed with the item and it’s cost.

How do you review a capo? I think that's a valid question. There are many capos out there, Amazon has a ton of them. I picked this one. Why? I don't know, maybe I liked the way it looked, maybe I liked some of the reviews, maybe, maybe, maybe. Anyway, I ordered this capo and am very pleased with it. It is easy to put on the neck of my guitar, depresses the strings very well, and I don't know what else to say about it. It is a capo, and if I ever need another capo, I will likely buy one of these. It also comes in a nice, cloth pouch (not sure why but it is a nice touch). It is quite a step up from my previous capo that I purchased with my first guitar (the one I still play, or try to play) in 1981, if that helps. My old one still worked fine but I just felt like buying something new. I don't know where I put my old one, I don't need it anymore now that I have this one. If this helps you decide to purchase this capo over another, great, I don't think you will regret it.

Well made metal capo with enough pressure for the larger strings of a bass. Even good enough to hold down a 5 string from either the top or bottom of the neck. Also has a nice finish.

I have a pile of guitars, and a ton of gear/accessories/etc to go with them, but I can never seem to find one of my half dozen capos when I need one, for some reason...I bought this for the rigs in the living room, but it looks nice with my Taylor 814e, so I have dedicated it solely to that guitar instead...I will likely be ordering at least one more, and maybe a few more, just to be able to find them when I need them....Shipping was on time, as expected, and it works, as expected.... also, it looks nice...UPDATE: While visiting a couple of different guitar shops(one big chain store, one local instrument dealer) around town, I checked out the different capos they carried and price compared them to this one. I ended up ordering two more of these on Amazon, and couldn't be happier with them. I feel they are a great buy, and also look nice! I am putting one of these in each guitar case, so I am never having to look for one again(which means I will be ordering a few more down the road.... my paycheck doesn't allow for me to buy a dozen of these all at once! lol)

I've been a serious guitar player for sixty years. I've used the standard Shubb ever since it appeared on the market, but wanted to get something that will quick-change between frets. This one does, but I had to cut 3/8" off the end of it and refinish the cut end before it would work for me. It is a mistake for Nordic to make a "one size fits all" capo. This capo is wide enough for a very wide fingerboard, but on my Martin HD-28 it stuck out and got in the way. I tried to use it once, and then marked it with a sharpie, cut off the end, and carefully ground and polished the end. Nordic would be a whole lot better off if they offered several different models - one for guitars with wide flat fingerboard, one for guitars with narrow curved fingerboard, and one for mandolin or banjo. The one-size-fits-all model doesn't work as well for any of those instruments.

this is a high quality, beautifully simple, and completely functional piece of guitar hardware. it even came with a nice little synch top cloth bag that is pretty good quality. (i actually have a little black synch top bag collection...don't ask) ANYWAY, i have only one complaint about the design. i have a custom built acoustic that i basically treat like its made of glass. in the joint where it clamps to the neck, its totally unpadded metal. with the neck side arm being a little dinky, its easy to hit the side of the fretboard with the bare metal. once you line it up and get it clamped on, it's absolutely rock solid with those thick rubber pads. i don't have any guitar buddies to show it off to, but i would recommend this to anyone looking for a great capo.

Capo is a must have for any acoustic guitar player.Have been using the normal capo design for years. Decided to try this out.Overall its a very good capo. Really nice finish on the capo, feels very well made. Looks way cooler than the regular plastic black capo.It is a little easier to clamp onto the neck of the guitar. But as far as functionality, it works pretty much just as good as the standard capo. If you clamp if on a little crooked or not close enough to a fret, it can still buzz or mess up the note on one of the strings and you have to adjust it.Overall I think the biggest upgrade is just that it looks way cooler than a normal capo.

I have had this capo for over a year & had been very happy with it. I have small hands and so many capos can be awkward for me to use if there is a large spread. I only mention the following to showcase the company’s excellent customer service: Suddenly the metal seemed to fail & it broke. I contacted the company and they responded right away and are sending a replacement for free! They also thanked me for sharing the picture of the damaged product so they can continue to improve their product & keep this from occurring again. You can buy this with confidence that if something does go wrong, it will be taken care of. Great customer care, Nordic!!
