G7th guitar capo for 12 string

I have an unusual guitar. In the late 70s and early 80s double string instruments where on the rise. Singers and groups like John Denver,the Eagles and Zepplin used a lot of double string instruments in their music. Some how out of all this the 9 string guitar was developed. You don't see very many of them now but you will hear them on studio recordings. Bellamy Brothers and various artist will include them in some of their recordings today. The capo that I purchased from Sweetwater is a perfect fit for my Alvarez Yairi 9 string guitar. I have always had bad luck with finding a capo that would work with the high third string (G string)on this guitar. I have always had to retune after installing a capo. The G7th capo does a fine job. Thank You Sweetwater and Joe Secu for your expertise.

G7th Newport 12 String Capo

Love this capo as it works well on my 12 string. Once adjusted properly there is absolutely no string buzz and it's easy to change fret position.

Only 12 String Capo that seems to work consistently

I have tried several other brands of 12 string capos: Shubb, Thalia, Kyser, Paige etc. All those had issues getting the proper pressure on the octave E and A strings. This one seems to work every time due to the sawtooth configuration coupled with the adjustable clamp. A little pricey but looks , performs and feels like a lifetime purchase.

12 string Capo

A major breakthrough in design. Saves very much retuning on my 50 year old Yamaha FG-315 when I Capo up. Also as advertised ensures a solid sound.

Buy this if you play a 12-string

I've tried several capos trying to find one that works well on my 12-string. This is it!
The notched pad is genius and works exactly as advertised.
