D'Addario Accessories Guitar Capo - NS Artist Dadgad - Simulates dadgad Tuning - Single Hand Use – Integrated Pick Holder and NS Micro Tuner Mounting Bracket - Black

Been using a Kyser partial capo for a number of years and I always had to use an additional capo on the capo to decrease the tension it would put on the strings. No more. I'm not sure how they designed this capo to feel like half the pressure but still perfectly capo the strings without detuning them or being too light that the strings would buzz, but I've officially retired the Kyser and I've never been happier. Fantastic build quality, incredibly easy to use. I only wish I had purchased this sooner.

So incredibly happy with this. I bought this and this is a game change in my playing style. I used to not pick up my acoustic as much and now this makes me want to play it even more! I like the adjustability of the capo. Highly recommend!

I wanted a different guitar sound. This has an adjustment for tension and works great

This is a really well-engineered capo. I have some super cheap full-sized capos from no-name brands and they are like a caveman clamping on my guitar in comparison to the supple but firm and authoritative grip of this tool.

This device lets me switch into DADGAD (two steps up, actually, so really EAEABE) tuning instantly. Two songs that I like to play at live music gigs are in this tuning, but I never played them because I didn't want to stop the show either to (A) tune and re-tune the guitar or (B) switch out guitars. Now I can just clamp on this capo and play (tuning might not be perfect across all the strings, but it's close enough for rock and roll). However, because it puts an appliance on my fretboard, I did have to learn different fingerings for the chords, but the learning curve was well worth it.

Wow I fifn’t know my fingers had gotten so weak from not playing guitar for several years. This is helping

Expanding your guitar playing outside of standard tuning is easier with this capo. It lets the 6th string be the deepest bass tone while changing the pitch of the other 5 strings. I have just started experimenting with it and I can see lots of areas to explore. For instance, Dropped G tuning really plays 5 strings with the 6th string the V. Many guitarists (Hi Keith) remove the 6th string in this tuning. If you use this capo on the fifth fret and tune the 6th string to C you get a deep rich bass and the guitar sounds a C chord. Great for playing songs in the key of C. As I experiment more, I'll add to this post. Hopefully, y'all will lets us know what you've found!

This is a great addition for any guitarist. No need to re-tune the guitar for a DADGAD-type of sound!
