## Questions & Answers

**Q: I know there are capos specifically made for mandolins/banjos, but I was wondering if this was also adaptable  for intonation purposes. Thanx!**
A: I've used mine on several of my mandolin with success.  Intonation was very good, so much so that I plan on getting the model specifically for mandolin/banjo from Planet Wave to not have it be so large and hitting my hand.  It's perfect for my 6 and 12 string guitars, though.  I have Dunlop and Shubb models that are very good,  but I'm enjoying the Planet Wave design and intonation BEST.

**Q: Will this work with a 2" nut and a radiused (24") fingerboard?**
A: I don't have that particular configuration but I'll give you some information and I hope it helps.  I got the standard steel-string model for my (standard) old Martin and the Classical model for my Taylor 712 with a 1 3/4" nut and a somewhat flatter fingerboard (I don't know the radius).  The standard actually works on the Taylor but the Classical model seems to give me fewer tuning issues with the 6th string.  The PW Classical model actually has a slight curve so it might be fine with a 24" radius but I couldn't say for sure.

**Q: I want to use this on a taylor 414ce-n with a 1-7/8” nut width. is the best choice?**
A: The Planet Waves capo that the D'Addario is designed from works very well on my custom OOO with 1&15/16" nut width.  The D'Addario looks like the same capo but is not.

I can't tell what they changed but it simply will not exert the same pressure on the strings as the old Planet Waves.

I have a Rainsong with 1&3/4" nut, that the D'Addario will work on but even on this guitar the clamping nut backs off after a while.

In my opinion D'Addario took a very good design and dropped the ball.

**Q: Can i use this for yamaha pacifica 112j electric guitar?**
A: Sure, the tension is adjustable and so it would work fine on an electric guitar.
