Planet Waves PW-CP-09 NS Tri-Action Guitar Capo (Black), Small Medium Large X-Large 2X-Large

Planet Waves PW-CP-09 NS Tri-Action Guitar Capo (Black), Small Medium Large X-Large 2X-Large

Q: Will this work on a 12 string guitar

Don't know what 12 string guitars the other answers refer to but I play almost exclusively twelve string acoustics, and this works for me at least up to the 7th fret (that's as high as I use it). As someone else says, it's 2.25" wide, so that is the limiting factor. Sure, as with all capo's on 12 strings, you need to have enough tension to pull down the big fat low E far enough that the octave string next to it is also pulled down, which does result in excessive bending of the low E. But at least with this capo you can dial that in. I've always used a fixed tension capo in the past that presses far too hard on the strings and pulls the strings too far out of tune. This capo is much, much better!

Q: Sorry… i know this is likely a silly question. but… what does the “ns” stand for?

NS Aluminium is a fully integrated manufacturer of aluminium profiles in Sri Lanka since 1986. I think it refers to the type of aluminum in Capo. Buy it anyway before they get on the terrorist list of "no sells" Interesting question. You stirred my brain early in the morning.

Q: Does this capo work for nylon string "classical" guitars with the wider necks?

This specific model is designed for guitars with a radiused fretboard. Planet Waves D'Addario also makes a classical guitar version that fits them correctly with their completely flat fretboards. I have one for my classical guitar and highly recommend it.

Q: Does the tri-action capo do Drop-D tuning?

Hi Im an acoustic guitar tech and touring musician. I don't completely understand the question,since the tuning is based on the guitar strings be set to "drop D" nothing to do with the capo.If you set your guitar to lowering the E string to a D( which is drop D) putting the capo on the 2nd fret will give you the same effect but just on a higher pitch.It would then be drop E tuning,fourth fret drop F tuning etc...the capo is great and can handle any tuning to set the guitar at.If you want a drop D tuning( in actual pitch if D while using a capo,youd have to tune down the guitar a whole step then lower the D 6th string to a C and put the capo on the second fret..Hope this wasnt to complicated.Short answer: Yes Good luck
