Buy A Guitar Capo Online

 A Capo is a removable clamp placed on the neck of a guitar. It evenly applies pressure to all of the strings, pushing them onto the fret at the chosen level. The result is a shortening of the string length that maintains the relationship between strings while raising the pitch of the guitar.

All fretted notes remain unchanged with only open strings being affected by the capo.

 1. Full Circumference Capos

Held in place by an elastic strap, these simple devices are only suitable for depressing all strings at once. They are now very cheap and rely on band tension to ensure correct function.

2. Metal Clamp Capos

These are now to more popular type for ease of use, function and style. They also allow some strings to be left free of the capo. This allows alternate tunings such as Drop D without having to change the tuning of individual strings.

 Before buying a capo, there are a few points to remember.

If the capo clamps with insufficient force, there can be a noisy vibration against the fret or dampening of strings. Even and complete fretting of all strings is essential.
