    Interesting video, but you forgot to talk about special capos for gutiars with different fretboard radius maesurements. VIntage Fender electrics have a 7.25" radius, and regular capos don't provide even pressure on all strings. So you would need to get a special capo, made for more curved fretboards - game changer. Also, there are capos made for classical guitars, wihch frequently have VERY flat fretboards - same problem in reverse.

      Thanks for adding that! Yes - most of the common capos come in different radiuses. I just realized I have one in my classical guitar case that I had forgotten about

    I have several Kyser caps. Love 'em. If I had an older vintage guitar with a softer finish, I'd probably get a Shubb, I like that the tension is adjustable

    This is great man! Hadn’t thought about combining capos like this before! Psyched to try this out!

    I just bought a Kyser today for my acoustic as I wasn't happy with the G7 on the acoustic but works amazing on electric guitar, they are both great Capos though. I'm happy enough to have both for different uses . Love the channel 👍🏼

    I have a simple hack for the Keyser Capo. Cut an old credit card to fit under the strings so that the capo doesn't pull too hard. Not having to retune between songs will make you consider capos more often.

      That’s a great idea. It keeps the strings from being pushed down so far they go out of tune
