What Is A Guitar Capo and What Does It Do?

D'Addario

Description

The D'Addario NS Reflex Capo is an innovative capo designed for buzz-free, in-tune playing at every fret. The NS Reflex Capo's patent-pending Side-Action geometry distributes pressure evenly across the neck, eliminating the pulling and detuning that plagues standard capos. Combined with a micrometer tension adjustment, the Reflex Capo applies just the right amount of force for your instrument. Constructed of aircraft-grade aluminum, the capo adds a negligible 1.5 ounces to your guitar, so you'll barely notice it's there until you need to change positions. The integrated pick holder keeps your favorite plectrum close at hand. The NS reflex capo is created by legendary designer Ned Steinberger.

Precision Tension Adjustment for Flawless Intonation

The Reflex Capo's patented tension adjustment mechanism lets you dial in the perfect amount of pressure for your guitar's neck. Turn the adjustment dial to increase or decrease tension in minute increments until all strings ring clearly in tune. Once set, the capo retains your customized tension setting for consistent performance and tone.

Ultra-Lightweight Aircraft-Grade Aluminum

Constructed of aircraft-grade aluminum, the NS Reflex Capo weighs a mere 1.5 ounces. Its lightweight, minimalist design adds virtually no bulk to your guitar's neck, allowing unimpeded access to higher frets. The capo's streamlined profile also makes it easier to position single-handedly.

Integrated Pick Holder

The NS Reflex Capo features an integrated pick holder to keep your favorite plectrum within easy reach. Stash an extra pick in the holder for quick changes on stage or in the studio.

Legendary Design and Craftsmanship

Created by acclaimed designer Ned Steinberger, the D'Addario NS Reflex Capo embodies his signature style of elegant, ergonomic design and flawless functionality. Steinberger's innovations have made him a legend in the music world, and the NS Reflex Capo lives up to his exacting standards for quality and performance.

Very Good Capo

This is a really good Capo very easy to use it fits the neck profile on my Martin D-28 and other Dreadnought guitars perfectly. The only flaw that I have with this Capo is it you have to carefully place it to avoid string buzz and tightening the spring doesn't really do a lot to eliminate it so I leave the spring completely Loose as possible and just get the adjustment right as close to the Fret as I can.

It is easy to use but would not buy again.

This Capo is easy to put on the guitar and move between the frets. However, it's s hard to keep strings from buzzing. There are better Capo choices out there.

    I appreciate the ability to adjust the tension on capos. This one combines the quick change grip with the tension adjustment. Good design… happy so far. #sweepstakes

    The capo has this tension knob that is really handy, the capo is slim & sleek, for some reason my other capos were kind of annoying. It feels good to hold and will definitely look good on any guitar so I think this capo is just a deal breaker in general when competing against potential others.

  • I would buy again.
