Members kwakatak Posted December 9, 2008 Members Share Posted December 9, 2008 a gliding capo. Check out the video on this site: http://www.glidercapo.com/ As a member of a praise band (where songs are transposed into different keys all the time) this is definitely going on my X-mas list!

Members guitarcapo Posted December 9, 2008 Members Share Posted December 9, 2008 I have one. They work o.k. but you do have to retune a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members guitarist21 Posted December 9, 2008 Members Share Posted December 9, 2008 I had one, lost it. It was fun, though maybe a little gimmicky. I didn't have any luck sliding it over the nut, mostly because my primary guitar at that time had one of those triangles underneath the nut, but if I did finally slide the thing over the nut, it would get things out of tune. Kind of wish I still had it, but they're kind of expensive. I don't wish I had it so much that I'd go out any buy another one when I have a perfectly good old-school capo that I haven't lost yet.

Members AaronF Posted December 9, 2008 Members Share Posted December 9, 2008 I have one. Its cool. I can't get it to go over the nut either. I also have to reach up with my right hand to slide it up, as it is really a bitch to try and do with your thumb (quickly, at least). The strings usually need to be pushed down toward the body of the guitar with the side of my hand just to keep intonation. Other than that, they're great.
