About Ukulele Capos
Standard capos — or capostatos — are made for full-size acoustic guitars and often will not be a good fit for smaller stringed instruments such as ukuleles. With a ukulele capo, however, you’re assured that you have the right tool for the job. They’re specifically made for smaller, squarish necks that don’t require as much applied pressure to produce a great tone from the strings.
Types of ukulele capos
Because ukuleles can vary in size and player needs differ, ukulele capos also come in variations. It’s important to first consider the size of your ukulele — whether you have a soprano, concert, baritone, or tenor. From there, you can focus more on capo preference and less on ukulele compatibility.
The two main types of ukulele capos are spring-loaded and c-clamp. Spring-loaded capos get the job done, are simple to use, and are inexpensive. Although, they come with a bulky handle that could be unappealing to some players. Regardless, spring-loaded capos are fast to set up and are a welcome hand in executing tougher barre chords. With c-clamp ukulele capos, you’re paying for a tool that is slightly more premium in its build but is adjustable to dial in the perfect tension on your ukulele neck. Elastic capos are also a budget-friendly option, though you’re not guaranteed a buzz-free playing experience like the other ukulele capo types provide.
