Creative TuningsUniversal Capo - SpiderCapo
1/4
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A capo with six independent fingers, one per string. For players who want partial capo positions and open tunings without retuning the guitar.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Getting DADGAD-style voicings without touching the tuners
- Songwriters hunting unusual open-string drones
- Players who already own a standard capo and want more
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone who just wants to jump up a few frets fast
- Classical or wide flat necks the arms may not span
- Players who want a one-hand, mid-song capo change
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Partial capo capability
Capo five of six strings and the guitar behaves like an alternate tuning, with the actual tuning untouched.
Detail 03
Universal fit
Designed to work across guitar types rather than one neck profile. Fit still varies with neck width and radius.
Detail 04
Adjustable arms
Each finger is set by hand. More setup time per position than a spring or trigger capo.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Setup takes longer than a trigger capo — not for fast changes between songs
- 02Arms need individual adjustment per guitar; expect fiddling to stop buzzes
- 03Check your neck width and fretboard radius before ordering
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I use it as a normal full capo?
Yes. Engage all six fingers and it clamps every string like a standard capo, though setup is slower than a trigger model.
02Does it work on 12-string or bass?
It's built around six-string spacing, one finger per string. Twelve-string and bass string spacing fall outside that layout.
03Will it fit an electric and an acoustic?
It's intended to cover a range of guitars, but neck width and fretboard radius differ. Expect to readjust the arms when you swap instruments.
04How do I get DADGAD sounds with it?
Capo selected strings and leave others open so the fretted and open notes form the voicing you want. The guitar stays in standard tuning.
