A Capo to Beat the Buzz!

In the world of capos, the G7th Performance 3 ART capo stands out in the crowd. This brilliantly designed, innovative capo represents years of research and design strategy. With G7th's patented Adaptive Radius Technology, the Performance 3 ART capo actually adapts to the unique radius of your guitar, eliminating the two most common issues that arise with capos: fret buzz from too-little tension and strings that are bent sharp from too much tension. This beautiful hand-polished steel capo features an easy squeeze-to-release mechanism that lets you slide it up and down the neck quickly.

Innovative technology

The Adaptive Radius Technology (ART) of the Performance 3 is really quite simple and ingenious. Located in the top bar behind the string pad, this technology allows the string pad to adjust to each string individually once you place it in position. The thicker, lower strings require slightly more tension, while the thinner higher strings require less. With ART, the string pad "senses" this difference and applies pressure accordingly for a more even, customized fretting. Goodbye buzz; so long sharps! Guitarists here at Sweetwater love the G7th Performance 3 capo!

G7th Performance 3 ART Capo Features:

  • Brilliantly innovative squeeze-and-release capo slides up and down the neck effortlessly
  • ART technology eliminates buzzing and out-of-tune strings
  • Silicon neck pad and silicon side guards protect the finish on your neck
  • Stores easily on peghead and nut

Does not disappoint

I've got a box full of capos. Clamps, screws, springs...I've tried them all. And none of them gave me consistent clear notes at the 7th fret and beyond. Desperate, I tried the G7th Performance. Right out of the package it was clear this capo was different. I put it in place at the 7th fret and gently pressed it closed, strummed and carefully listened. I smiled. My dreadnought, with a baseball bat neck, rings clear as a bell at the 7th fret. And the low-profile, open end of this design means I can finger B7 shapes without finger gymnastics. It delivered as promised.

Best Capo

This is the bwst capo I have used. The constant and even string pressure provides great intonation at any fret. The on and off of the capo is quick and easy.

Works As Advertised

Only capo I've tried to date that doesn't pull strings out of tune when using it. Works in all positions, on all my guitars. Don't know about the durability yet as I just got it but feels very solid and well-made. Would definitely recommend giving this one a try.

best capo I own

I really don't understand the 1-star reviews for this capo. I use it on 70+ solo gigs a year and it's the best one I own. Great for quick changes, too. I'm trying to imagine how someone could possibly have trouble using it.

It works as advertised - it applies even pressure on all 6 strings. I'd suggest that the 1-star reviewers check their guitar's neck and get a professional setup ASAP.
