Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The 6-string model works great on my dreadnought, but this has the extra bite and width to better handle the 12. The 12 string model just holds firmer i guess. It is strong enough, and wide enough to safely use on my martin & co.

Ovation 12-string capo works great for the 12 string. Fits perfect give great sound quality no buzz or dead strings. Love it on my 12 string guitar.

This capo delivers. It works very well and does not seem to mess much with the tuning.

It works great! Great product. Very satisfied. It works well.



Cons

Not once have i ever been able to get it to work on the first fret, second fret is maddening. Spring for the g7 guitar capo instead.

    I found the spring in the kg12b too strong for me to use but otherwise is a great capo for stronger hands

    I had been using an old bought with my first guitar nearly 55 years ago capo with a huge spring clamp padded with felt on the back and a clamp on fret bar

    Effective but always would through the guitar way out of tune every time a change was made

    Also very clumsy to put ontake off or move to change key


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Has plenty of clamp power to evenly fret the strings but keep retuning to a minimum if at all
