D'Addario NS Tri-Action Guitar Capo, Black
- Designed for use on 6-string electric and acoustic guitars

- Single hand, easy to operate Tri-Action Geometry; clamps to the headstock when not in use
It looks bigger in the picture?! Haha! Seriously though, I pulled out the CP-09 this week because I thought it looked like a big hunk of capo (it looks bulky, right?), so I needed to find out what its all about.
D'Addario talks about geometry, micro-adjustments, and pressure but to be honest what really matters is the fact that it’s easy to squeeze and easy to use, it’s very intuitive. It’s very lightweight, and considering its size it’s completely unobtrusive. Tuning is nailed on standard guitar with regular strings - I haven’t tried anything heavier yet.
Capo Bar Length (part that covers strings) - 52mm

Designed in conjunction with Ned Steinberger, the Planet Waves CP-09 Tri-Action Capo employs easy-to-operate tri-action geometry. The NS Tri-Action Capo from Planet Waves assures buzz-free, in- tune performance at any fret.
Not just the average capo on the market, Planet Waves' Tri-Action Capo's patent pending tri-action geometry reduces the force required to open and close the capo and evenly applies tension regardless of guitar neck profile. Combining the micrometer tension adjustment and direct horizontal pressure, the Tri-Action capo virtually eliminates pulling the strings side to side and the need to retune during use. Additionally, the lightweight aluminum construction adds negligible weight to the neck of the instrument. Available in black and silver, the NS Tri-Action Capo is for 6-string acoustic and electric guitars with radiused fret boards. It also features a built-in pick holder for every guitarist's convenience. Available in both black and silver.
Design-mastermind Ned Steinberger affirms: 'The die-cast aluminum Tri-Action capo is a fine precision tool: strong, light, and easy to use, with adjustable spring tension for precise intonation.'
'Pushing the envelope is status quo for Planet Waves,' says Rob Cunningham, Planet Waves Product Specialist. 'Releasing products that solve common problems is our specialty, and the new Tri-Action Capo is no different. Its ability to eliminate string pulling to keep players in tune at every fret makes music-making a breeze.'
