I love tge idea of this capo, and it woud be amazing if the materials held up

Super lightweight, easy to attach, and tiny so its out of the way. If they used a hard rubber, i could see it being my favorite capo, but... the rubber that touches the strings is immediately cut by them, so it's basically useless.

I was Robbed!! Item Defective

Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2024

Color: BlueVerified Purchase

I was excited about this capo. I liked the features on it, especially its low profile. I hate a big capo as I usually hit my hand on it while playing and it messes me up. Trust me, I need no help in the messing up department. This capo was the perfect size. I put it on the guitar and played it once...very nice.
However, when I removed it, I noticed the rubber part that lays against the strings had cuts from all the strings. I didnt get concerned at first but after close inspection, the cuts were deep. I did not overtighten the capo, I am careful with that as to not damage my guitar. I then discovered that the rubber was either cheap or dry rotted. I could easily cut it and peel it off with my fingernail, and with very little pressure. There is some of the same material on the back of the capo near the rear of the adjustment screw. That was also dry rotted and cut easily with a fingernail. SO, either this capo sat in the amazon warehouse in the heat too long, or the manufacturer failed to use a quality rubber or silicone. whatever the case, it is not right and I am out of $16 plus dollars. I cannot return this as I had to nearly destroy the package to get the capo out. Amazon live chat is either gone for good or impossible to find as I went round and round on the website looking for help. I refuse to call and wait forever just to not get any help.
That aside, shame on G7th for making this useless product. !6 dollars is a lot of money to me and to others. Do not buy this capo, you will regret it. I sure did.

Works Well

Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2022

I wanted a very slim capo. This works well. The larger spring loaded capos I have sometimes get in the way when playing down close to the capo. This is much less intrusive, more like playing close to the nut. It is well constructed and easy to use.

Honey, I shrunk the capo

Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2021

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

This capo design is seriously flawed. It didn't remotely come close to fitting on my Yamaha Pacifica 112V, Traveler Escape Mark III, or Orangewood Oliver. With the screw barely hanging on its last thread, the capo squeezes the strings to the fretboard - this is on the 1st, 2nd & 5th frets. Even worse, it is severely angled towards the high strings, so the high E string is touching the fret board, while the capo barely is touching the low-E string. Also, the rubber pad is overly soft and I had to peel the capo away from the strings because they dug into the rubber and got stuck. The capo has permanent cuts in the rubber now from just test fitting it on 3 different guitars. I thought I was going crazy and had to check the packaging a dozen times to double, triple, quadruple, etc. check that this wasn't the Ukulele capo. Sadly, it is not - it is indeed intended for full sized acoustic and electric guitars.

I have to assume there is some manufacturing issue, because this just cannot be right (did the factory confuse inches for mm's?). However, even if it fit well, I can't imagine this being an acceptable capo. It is literally a cheap plastic piece of junk and I would have no confidence in it equally capo'ing all strings at a proper tension. Quite surprised this comes from a company that makes $60-$260 high-end capo's.

Light weight, small and unobtrusive

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 14, 2019

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

This G7th Ultralight Capo works perfectly. Takes a little getting used to to fit to the guitar neck by pulling the main body to release, fit around the neck, click into place and then tighten the screw to adjust. Once in place it doesn't move and compresses all strings equally with no string buzz. I have been using it at fret #4 on my Epiphone Les Paul, with ease. I particularly like the fact that it has no protruding levers to get in the way of the fretting hand making chord structure easy. It is easy to manoeuvre by adjusting the screw and sliding the capo up or down the fretboard. Used with care I see no reason why the G7th shouldn't last for considerable time and at the price it represents great value.

Highly recommended.

Mi aspettavo di più

Reviewed in Italy on September 19, 2018

Color: BlueVerified Purchase

Buona l'idea ma non mi ha convinto.
Troppo leggero, poco efficace, appena sufficiente: lo sssconsiglierei x lo strumming pesante o x il fingerpicking energico.
Troppa poca corsa per agganciare la vite di tenuta/regolazione.
Diciamo che, visto il basso prezzo, può essere considerato come capotasto di riserva per una 6 corde. Se esce per la 12 non credo che lo proverò: già fa poca pressione su una corda, figuriamoci su due...
