Location: Earth·SolarSystem·LocalInterstellarCloud·Local Bub | Been using a new G7th Capo. This is a great piece of equipment. Sounds better than my Shubb. Tunes through great. Adjusts anywhere along the neck in an instant. It's pricey, but, it's the best I've ever used (and I really like my old Shubb) |

Location: Madison, Wisconsin | I just recently purchased one myself and I agree. It's the best sounding capo I've ever used. Only thing I have problems with is changing keys quicky. It's impossible to do. I still use my Keyser for the "quick change" feature. |

Location: 6 String Ranch | Jeff, did you get the right handed or left handed capo? I've heard the lefties have more sustain. |

Location: East Tennessee | Will it work on a 12-String?
I've been thinking of picking one up. |

Location: NJ | Seems to depend on the guitar.
I tried it on a late-90's Legend-12
at the 7th fret, and it didn't work.
Others have had great success with it.
I think a 12-string model is warranted . . |

While I really like the G7 for all my 6 bangers, it seems just a little fickle with some of the 12's. Still have to rely on the Shubb when it's a 12 and I need to be dead on. |

Location: Yucaipa, California | Same with me...love it... but it doesn't quite work on my Balladeer at any fret above the 5th...I'll buy the 12-string model when it's available... |

| I have one and maybe I've not used it enough but I still prefer the Dunlop Victor. I'm not sure of the model on that Dunlop but it's the one that looks like the Johnny Cash model. The G7 I guess is just not my capo because there sure are a lot of people that do like them. I used the Shrubb for years and it is good but it may have seen it's day after the G7, Dunlop and Cash. |
