Customer Reviewsfrom Oak Park, IL USA September 19, 2011 Music Background: Pro Musician Amazing CapoThe Spider Capo works as stated. If you experiment with exotic tunings you'll love this Capo. If you want to do modified G or drop D tunings the Spider Capo will easily do them and allow you to change between whatever configuration you like quickly. No matter you neck size there is room (and individual spacings) to get an excellent fit. It is even posssible to create John Cage style mutes and ringing sounds.The Spider Capo does the work of a unique and utilitarian capo and is well worth it's price. The frame is metal with six heavy duty plastic tuners. You are able to change neck size and string placement. Lastly, you can design tunings that allow you to play below the Capo's placement for some mind blowing dual tunings. Lets say the Spider is placed at the 5th fret with open A and B strings. Above and below you can create all kinds of chords and unique string placements otherwise impossible. from Bradenton, FL USA January 11, 2012 Music Background: Professional Musician & Recording Engineer I've been playing guitar, bass, mandolin,banjo and violin professionally for over 45 years and that is not my age. What a great idea!I never use a capo. I can play in any key at any time. Where this thing comes in handy is when I'm playing slide on my dobro. I actually use two of them at once. This keeps me from having to have more than one dobro on stage with me at a time. Or having someone re-tune it to a different tuning for me while I'm playing. Just put it on the neck where you need it, select the notes you want to use and your done. It could not be any easier. |
