Great Capo!

I have a pretty decent collection of capo's and the G7th Newport is the one that I use the most. It's easy to use and clamps down firmly without changing the tuning. I have three of them, one being for my 12-string guitar.
Rated 5/5

Best Capo!

I've had all the Capos over the years.. All of them awkward designs & a pain to use. The G7 is the fastest & easiest to use Capo I've ever used!
Rated 5/5

I Love This Capo

I own several G7th capos but the Newport is my favorite. Although this is promoted by G7th as being for acoustic guitar, I find it works extremely well on electric guitars as well. The adjustable tension is what is appealing - I can set the tension prior to playing a song and when that song comes up it is quite the simple matter of simply re-clamping the capo in place and viola! I find the adjustable tension knob easier to use especially on my instruments that require light fretting pressure. My guitars on which I use this Newport capo include Gibsons (Les Pauls, CS-356, ES-335), Fenders (Telecasters, Stratocasters), an O-10 Lowden, a Gibson J-185 and Martin GPC-18e. All these platforms retain intonation quite readily without retuning through fifth position; and remain usable with only minor capo adjustment and/or string re-pitching through eighth position, the highest I've ever used any capo including the Newport.

I purchased this to replace a Newport that was somehow lost. I actually own two Newport six-string capos and a Newport four-string partial capo. I recommend these to players I encounter. If you are sensitive to harmonic intonation, I believe these Newport capos are for you.
Music background: Playing guitar for nearly 60 years in multiple genres (finger style, rock, blues, etc.)
Rated 5/5

works perfectly with taylor gs mini

I wanted a capo that I could easily use one-handed, that was easy to work around and that took up minimal room in my case. This does all that. Totally worth the money,
Rated 5/5

very good capo

though it may seem a little pricey, this thing works beautifully---easily adjusts for the right level of tension.
