G7 In 7th Heaven

I have used several capo's over the years, and can say that this is the most versatile one out there!
No more fret bumps, buzzes, or irritating handles to get in the way.
I have used it on both electric and acoustics with no problems, and cannot find a flaw!
Over time I will have one in all my guitar cases!!!

G7th Capo

Need an awesome easy to use capo? Get this one! I'm not a huge capo user, but I've been around long enough to use some less than ideal ones- this is the best I've ever used!

Well worth it!

It's expensive but well worth it. It's one handed use makes it as easy to use as a Kyser Quick Change. There'st no string buzz and no re-tuning. You gotta get this.

The Best Capo

Pricey for a capo, but well worth it. Unlike other brands (Kyser) where you'd have to re-tune your guitar after putting the capo on the neck, the G7th Capo applies just the right amount of pressure to keep the notes from being muted or bending out of tune. Now, I have found my self transposing songs, that normally i wouldn't. The G7th capo fluidly changes keys and I don't have to deal with the hassle of re-tuning every time I move the capo up a fret or two, like with the traditional capo mentioned above! Solid brushed aluminum construction. Very low profile, doesn't get in your way at all.

If I had to choose one capo to take with on an some epic adventure... this would be the one.

Worth every penny!

I've been playing for over 40 years and have never found anything that compares. It fits all my guitars, acoustic & electric, goes on instantly, no string buzz and NO retuning! Absolutely worth every penny!

superb

Though I never had to retune with any capo ( the right pressure just behind the fret will do, btw) I tried the G7 for fun after loosing all my Shubbs. At first the weight might be a bit daunting. Feels like a monkey wrench on my boutique flat-top, and it throws the balance a bit. (Don't drop that bad boy on your sound board) But it is super easy to use, and the dense mass seem to add tone and sustain. I like it a lot. Now the Shubbs feels a bit lightweight in contrast, still has its place in my tool box.

Solid Capo

A little practice to get comfortable with changing it, but it fits my guitar perfectly, leaves no marks, and frets the strings firmly. Very dependable performance.

An expensive fret-lobster, but holds its place.

If it wasn't for the price, I'd recommend this capo to everyone. It's sturdy and solid, tunes right. I've had other capos "walk" on me, but this one is tight and the action is great. Also not much to stick up over the fretboard to interfere with playing. Expensive, but worth it.

G7 capo

I am extremely happy with this no buzz capo. It would be even better if they made it smaller. Make it the size of a schubb and I will buy one for each of my guitars. Thanks G7John

Awkward but good

The capo works very well, and the way the mechanism works is great. Doesn't matter what size neck or even the shape, you still get a good clamp and fretting of the strings. Removing it is a bit awkward though. If the release lever operated in the reverse direction, it would be easy and natural to remove the capo and grab it in one smooth fluid motion.

Good but not perfect

Considering the other reviews and the extra high price, I had high hopes in buying this capo. The shortcomings of most capos is that they tend to sharpen the overall pitch by around 10 - 20 cents. While the shubb capo is sharper than this one, the G7 is still raising the pitch around 10 cents overall. In general the pressure is slightly more even (more uniform sharpening) - still the result too different from the others. Considering the price difference, I am disappointed with my purchase. Additionally with using 13's on my acoustic, capoing at the first fret can result in a slight buzz due to insufficient locked pressure in this mechanism.

A good capo - however not the perfect one it is selling itself as. Not worth the price.
