G7th Capo
A capo should be simple, right? You put it on your guitar, and it just works. But as any guitarist knows, it’s rarely that easy. Finding a capo that doesn’t pull your strings sharp and wreck your intonation can feel like an impossible quest.
I’ve been down that road. I once fell for a very pricey Thalia capo. While it looked fantastic, it was useless. On my $5k Martin, it pulled the low E and high E strings so sharp the guitar was instantly out of tune. If you want to look good and sound bad, that’s your capo. After that expensive mistake, I went straight back to my G7th.
Why G7th Just Works
I own a few of their Performance 2s and a Performance 3, and they are, without a doubt, my favorite and only capos. Here’s why.
1. It Actually Keeps Your Guitar in Tune. This is everything. The main reason the G7th Performance 3 is so brilliant is its Adaptive Radius Technology (ART). This means the capo pad automatically adapts to the curve of your specific guitar’s fretboard, applying perfectly even pressure across all the strings. The result? No more retuning after you put your capo on. It just works, every single time.
2. It’s Built for the Performing Musician. The simple, squeeze-on, squeeze-off operation is effortless with one hand. Need a quick key change mid-set? You can slide it up or down the fretboard smoothly without a fight. It’s fast, reliable, and stays out of your way so you can focus on the music. Aesthetically, they’re incredibly sleek—the black one is so low-profile it practically disappears in videos.
3. A Company with Integrity. This is the big one for me. G7th is a company that truly stands behind its products. I know their marketing guy, Tommy, and I know they have an incredible lifetime warranty. They have always been perfect about replacing any that I’ve managed to break (I feel terrible about how many I go through!). They even did a custom engraving of my logo on one of my capos. That’s a level of quality and customer care you just don’t find everywhere.
My Recommendation
If you’re tired of fighting with your gear and just want a capo that works perfectly every time, get the G7th Performance 3. It’s the last one you’ll need to buy.
You can grab one on Amazon or check out their full range on their website.
