Hello, Everyone,
As stated in a previous post, my friend/mentor, Bruce, has generously offered to buy me a brand new G7 Performance 3 Capo for Christmas. ( I picked the black satin one, BTW. The G7 website people from UK pronouce it, as, "CAP-oh", which to me is the Italian word for a Mafia Wiseguy, and this come from my pastor and deacon, who are Italian, so... but I digress.) I'm not a, "capo guy," and I'd like to know if any OFC members use this particular brand of capo. I've seen/heard mixed reviews on it. I only have just the one old style Jim Dunlop Curved Ratcheted Capo, without the buckle, which I have used very sparingly, since I purchased it many moons ago. I did eventually get the newer Jim Dunlop model with the buckle, but I lost it when I moved from my home town to Ottawa in 1992. Thanks in advance for the kind help with this matter.

YOu shoud definetely try playing with capos it´s a lot of fun. I have all kinds, for all 6, 2, or 3 or 4 strings and I use them with doubleneck guitars with different open tunings...

The best Capos are:
G7th heritage
JohnPearse reliable capo
and the new Shubb F1
The y all have the adjustment screw on the backside. Forget all the others, they are are waste of money.

I'd like an Elliot capo but it's really expensive in the capo world. I'll stick with a corn cob and some rubber bands. Seems to work just fine......
