Review: Great capo for the price! - I bought the Planet Waves Guitar Capo in black the other day, and it works great! I did a lot of shopping around because I wanted a good capo for my acoustic electric guitar, and when I came upon this one I liked the style. BENEFITS: -The Capo is screw on from the bottom, so that means you can adjust how tight it is on the strings (So you can barre chords or just silence strings). -The black looks great, and the material is nice- I don't think it could scratch the guitar neck unless you wore off the thick padding. -This could go either way, but the capo is nice and small. I was a bit surprised when I got it, but it works just fine. Would probably be easy to lose if you have a messy place though! DRAWBACKS: You can't really mount the capo on the headstock, even if you try to screw it on. The only way I can figure out to keep it on is to clamp both the top tuning key and the headstock. (Not recommended of course) OVERALL: This is a great capo. It's built well, does what it needs to do, and it looks nice. Like I said, my only gripe is that it doesn't fit on the headstock very well. Definitely recommended!
Review: Perfect Little Capo - I have used a lot of capos, and this one works better than all of them. Super easy to use. I rarely have to retune when I put it on or when I remove it. I bought the classical version (which is slightly longer to accommodate the wider fretboard) so that I could use it on my nylon string guitars as well as my acoustics. Works perfectly on both styles. Also works on my banjo, mandolin, and ukulele. (Update: I ended up buying the acoustic version too. I have am electric guitar with a small radius neck, and the classical capo was putting more pressure on the middle strings. Definitely worth having both!)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for classical Nylon String guitar
*by S***N on June 24, 2014*

I purchased a Classical guitar and only had a traditional (steel string) Capo available to me. Not thinking it through I used it on my Nylon Stings and after a few times I realized it had damaged the string to the point they had to be replaced. Along with my string order I added this Capo so it does not happen again. Pros: It's small and lightweight. It's very well made. It not only looks great but also appear to be of high quality. It's very adjustable. Unlike my steel string Capo, this uses a screw/knob to tighten, not spring loaded. This allows you to finely tune the capo to add just enough pressure to bar the fret but not damage the stings. It works on steel strings. Yep, I found my self needing a Capo on another guitar and only having this with me, I saw no reason it should not work so I gave it a try and it performed wonderfully. I won't be using it full time on my steel strings, but great to know in a pinch I have use it. If you need a great capo thats gentle on your Nylon strings then this is the one to get.
