Members Pope on a Rope Posted May 3, 2010 Members Share Posted May 3, 2010 How do you place your capo? Are you sure it's the capo and not some fret buzz? If it's fret buzz you may just need a truss rod tweak if it's something that just started recently. The season's changing, it could be you might just need a seasonal truss rod tweak.

Members Kino Posted May 3, 2010 Author Members Share Posted May 3, 2010 Well this is the capo I have now, http://www.jr.com/planet-waves/pe/PWS_CP01/ However, I really want something better as it doesn't seem to have enough pressure that I want.

Members Pope on a Rope Posted May 3, 2010 Members Share Posted May 3, 2010 !!! WARNING !!! I don't know if it was coincidence or what, but after I clicked that link my system was all hosed up. I suddenly had a bunch of strange things in my task manger. I found this file first pwpealhj .exe, after I killed it, all kinds of strange processes started popping up in the task list. I spent the last hour getting it back up. Now I'm going to make sure all my Virus and Malware tools are all up to date. Well this is the capo I have now, http://www.jr.com/planet-waves/pe/PWS_CP01/ However, I really want something better as it doesn't seem to have enough pressure that I want.

Members Fusion1 Posted May 4, 2010 Members Share Posted May 4, 2010 My othe4r guitar player and I bought the Shubb classic capo. Works great and tension is adjustable. Only problem is that it isn't a spring type where you can clip it onto your headstock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Kid Klash Posted May 4, 2010 Members Share Posted May 4, 2010 You can have good, or you can have cheap, but it's rare to get both at the same time. Go try a bunch of them and buy the one that you like the best, whatever it costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mrbrown49 Posted May 4, 2010 Members Share Posted May 4, 2010 I have a kyser and it works just fine on electric though it's better suited for acoustic. You just need to be really careful about how and where you clamp it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
