Capo Designed with the Player in Mind

G7th's Performance 2 Capo for 6-string classical guitars brings a new level of performance to capo playing. Smaller, lighter, and now easier to adjust than ever, G7th reversed their patented clutch mechanism to give you a playing tool that won't compromise your tone. The Performance 2 doesn't 'chomp down' on your precious fingerboard the ways other guitar capos do. Put it in position and give it a gentle squeeze - the smaller rubber surface is gentle to the instrument and won't choke out your guitar's sustain. And when you're done, the G7th Performance 2 6-string guitar capo is small enough to stow away on your headstock.

Why this capo is the one you need

Capos can be a constant source of frustration to guitarists, but the Performance 2 is a capo that becomes a part of your guitar, not just something you put on it. So easy to use you'll never fumble during performances again. Just push the lever to release the arms, find your fret position, and give the capo a gentle squeeze. Your guitar is held securely in tune for as long as you need. When it's time to move on to the next song simply press the lever again to release the capo. All of this can be done with one hand making you look like a pro in front of any audience!

Specifically designed for classical guitars

The G7th Classical Performance Capo was designed expressly to suit the needs of nylon string classical guitar players. It features a longer arm and a flat profile to comfortably fit a classical guitar fingerboard.

G7th Performance 2 6-string Classical Guitar Capo Features:
  • Reverse wrap spring clutch mechanism makes using a capo easier than ever
  • Smaller size means you can store it on the headstock for whenever you need it
  • Lighter-weight and less rubber means it won't pull on your strings, leaving you always in tune

Great quality

Saw this capo's mediocre rating and I wanted to up it with another 5 star! I'll say that I wasn't a huge fan of this capo - at first. Eventually I got used to it and so did my guitar. Now I love it. I have one for my steel string as well.

G7 Performance 2 capo for classical guitars

About to order one, and I'll keep my fingers crossed that I won't get string buzz as a couple of reviewers mentioned they did. One of those reviewers, however said that he was disappointed that it didn't work well with his Martin HD-28. Super fine guitar, but this capo is meant for a Classical nylon stringed guitar with a flat fingerboard. His Martin, as do most, if not all steel string acoustic guitars, have a curved fingerboard, so it couldn't fit right and I don't doubt that his guitar's strings buzzed. I ordered a G7th 3 from another dealer who assured me it would be good for my classical guitar. It was not, it has a curved bar for a curved fingerbord. I'm keeping it, however because it's fine on my Seagull acousticc and Fender Strat, etc. So, I'm putting 5 stars in the review before I even have one to makd up fof the low mark given by that one reviewer who gave the capo a bad grade when apparently he should have got another type model capo.

I just bought my 2nd

I liked the one I was using on my acoustic so much I tried to use it on my classical and discovered it was too short. Not a problem. G7 makes a larger one. Works great, it"s easy to use, and protects your guitar

Form and Function

This is an easy product to review. I've used a G7 on all my guitars for years now. The same one, in fact. Wouldn't use any other. But I needed one for classical guitar. I wouldn't have thought that the elegant design (for a capo) could be improved upon, but it was. This capo has been trimmed down to be a bit more slender. The lever now releases in a more natural direction for easier movement. And there's a little black dot opposite the release lever to provide a non-slip surface for your finger. Apply as much pressure as you need just by squeezing. It works. Judging from the longevity of my other G7, they're built to last.
Rated 1.5/5

Swing and a miss

I bought this a couple years ago and have been dissapointed with this capo to the point I rarely use it unless it's all I can find at the time. While it's a good concept, the desired ease of use (squeeze lightly) and stings held down with no fuzz (no matter how hard you squeeze) is just not there.
