Detail 01
Curved pad
Matches a radiused fretboard, so pressure spreads evenly across strings. On a flat classical neck it presses the middle harder than the edges.

DunlopTrigger Curved Guitar Capo - Gold
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Spring-loaded quick-change capo for curved-radius fretboards, in gold. For players who change keys mid-set and want one-handed operation.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Switching keys between songs without stopping to adjust
- Steel-string acoustics and electrics with a radiused fretboard
- One-handed capo moves during a live set
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Classical or flat-fretboard guitars, which need the flat version
- Players who want to fine-tune clamping pressure per fret
- Wide-neck instruments the jaw won't clear
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
Trigger spring action
Squeeze and release with one hand. Fast, but the spring sets the tension — you can't dial it down on a light-action neck.
Detail 03
Clamp-on design
Clips onto the headstock or behind the nut when you're not using it, so it stays on the guitar between songs.
Detail 04
Gold finish
Cosmetic only. Matches gold hardware; the clamping mechanism is the same as other finishes.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Fixed spring tension can pull strings sharp — retune after clamping
- 02Check the clamp clears your neck depth on thick or wide necks
- 03Curved version only; flat fretboards need the flat model
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this work on a classical guitar?
Not well. Classical fretboards are flat and this pad is curved, so it won't apply even pressure. Use the flat version instead.
02Does a capo pull the guitar out of tune?
It can. Spring capos apply fixed pressure, which stretches strings slightly sharp. Check tuning after you clamp, especially on the wound strings.
03Can I use it one-handed?
Yes. The trigger design is made to squeeze open and reposition with one hand while you keep playing.
04Does the gold finish do anything?
No. It's cosmetic, for matching gold tuners and hardware. Function is identical to the other finishes.
