Dual-action capos like the Planet Waves NS Artistoffer the benefits of a spring capo while also featuring adjustable tension when you need it. Yoke-Style Capos A capo can potentially damage your guitar if used incorrectly, especially with cheaper or heavier-weight capos.

Capos like the Paige Clik range - which are known as cradle capos - are some of the very best if you're particularly worried about keeping your intonation perfect, due to their perfectly even tension across the whole fingerboard. There are a number of different styles available. Each comes with pros and cons, and ultimately personal choice will impact which you prefer.

One thing to keep in mind with the Kyser KG12B capo is that it doesn’t have tension adjustment. On one hand, this means that you can mount this thing to your guitar without any setup. On the other, you can’t finetune the amount of tension applied to the strings. When it comes to sound, NS Capo Pro appears to offer good performance and even string tension. The tension is adjustable via a knob at the base of the capo, like in Newport. This is another trigger-style model and thanks to the oversize legs, grabbing it and moving it up and down the fretboard was incredibly easy.

Now they are preparing to introduce a new model, the Paige Pro, with a number of innovative design elements that they expect will revolutionize the way we look at fine capos going forward. With this capo, the real attraction was the Adaptive Radius Technology, or ART for short. Within the body of the capo is a series of cams that adjust to the radius of the fretboard it’s placed on in real time, with no manual adjustment necessary. The result was absolutely staggering. With a good capo, you shouldn’t really notice any loss of tuning, but it can happen. With this G7th capo, tuning was genuinely perfect every time we clamped it down.
