D'Addario NS Tri-Action Capo, Silver

Well made, sleak and slim capo, sits behind the nut of my martin guitar very snug. Easy to use and easy to assert the right amount of pressure on the strings not to put them out of tune, very pleased with my purchase, as for how long it will last, who knows as I have only had it approx one month.

I have a guitar that's a little out of whack, and the strings buzz really badly unless clamped down on the third fret or higher. This does that so well! Being able to change the tension is probably key to it, and this is really ready to do that. It is a quality piece of kit, fixing the issue on my guitar (I love playing the key of C shapes at capo 3 anyway). It works well on my competent guitars too! If day is h good value for money.

Capo is excellent at doing its job of barring the frets, I just find it awkward and strange to use as it is backwards compared to every other capo, if you look at my photo you will see what I mean. But as I say it is fantastic at doing its job

Lightweight, easy to use and the mouldable consistency of the ‘rubber’ cushion seems to make for a good fit. I bought this to replace older capos on which the ‘rubber’ cushion has become harder and leaves permanent grooves in the surface. The durability is something that only time will tell, but, for now, just exactly as needed. UPDATE: 2nd April 2025 Sadly the adjust screw cap has snapped off after very little use. I only received this on 12th February 2025 and whilst using on a 12 string guitar and removing tension the capo knob on the adjuster came off. Initially I thought it just need screwing back on but, alas it is completely detached from the screw stem with no means available to me to fix it back on. Having read further reviews it would seem to be not so rare occurrence. Disappointing product from such a well renowned company. Returned for a refund - no sense in opting for a replacement in these circumstances.

Very solid construction despite being slim. The adjustment mechanism is very good. A little on the expensive side but should last a lifetime.

Works great on my acoustics with 12” radius & my 9.5” electrics. All are 6 string guitars so I can’t comment for 12 strings. Just slide over just behind fret, tighten gently until strings stop buzzing. Causes minimal tuning issues. Store at nut when not in use. It’s very small & light so no “neck dive” issue. Can be used single handed too.

Decent capo with good sound BUT fell to pieces on first use and couldn’t get capo off without pliers

Great little lightweight capo. Used all the time at gigs. Doesn’t weigh the guitar arm down.
