Strong match

Who this is for

  • Players who need to change keys between songs quickly
  • Singers transposing a song to fit their range
  • Keeping a capo on the headstock between uses

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • 12-string, banjo, mandolin or classical necks — wrong width or radius
  • Players wanting adjustable clamping pressure to fine-tune tuning
  • Anyone needing a capo that sits flush without bulk behind the neck

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.

Kyser Quick-Change Capo for 6-String Guitars - Black construction detail

Detail 01

Quick-change spring design

One squeeze on, one squeeze off, single-handed. No screw to dial in each time you move it.

Detail 02

Sized for 6-string guitars

Curve and spring tension match a standard 6-string neck. Wider or flatter necks fret out or buzz.

Detail 03

Fixed spring tension

Pressure is preset. Very light or very heavy string gauges may need a slight retune after clamping.

Detail 04

Clamps onto the headstock

Parks behind the nut between songs so you're not hunting through a gig bag.

Detail 05

Black finish

Stays visually quiet against a dark neck and on stage under lights.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Retune after clamping — any capo pulls strings slightly sharp
  2. 02Place it just behind the fret, not on top of it
  3. 03Rubber pad wears over years; the capo itself is not rebuildable

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Will this work on an electric guitar?

Yes. It fits standard 6-string necks, electric or acoustic. Very flat or unusually wide necks are where fit gets inconsistent.

02Can I use it on a 12-string?

No. This is built for 6-string necks. A 12-string needs more clamping surface and pressure.

03Does it go out of tune when I clamp it?

Slightly sharp, like any spring capo. Check tuning after you move it, especially above the fifth fret.

04Can I put it on with one hand?

Yes. Squeeze the handle, position, release. That's the point of the quick-change design.
