Perfect for my 12
Jonwbd 05.03.2022
I found standard capos to be a little fussy with my 12 string guitar, I was getting unwanted buzz and it was a struggle to fit the capo without bending strings out of place.

For me, this capo was the perfect solution. It’s notched surface eliminated all of the issues I was having.

The capo is well-made, robust and easy to use.

This capo was a perfect fit for my Danelectro, but if you play a different variety of 12 string I’d recommend you check to see if the grooves line up with your strings, some 12s are strung high-low where others are strung low-high, this could make a difference. Also, it might not be the right fit if your 12 string has a notably wider fretboard to accommodate the extra strings.

PH
Almost perfect
Pieter H. 21.01.2020
This is a beautiful piece of hardware and does a good job on my new Furch 12-string provided it stays on the lower frets. The problem is that most of the songs I need it for need the capo at the 7th fret (Hotel California, If I Needed Someone, Here Comes The Sun etc) and this requires a lot of clamping in order for the high E-strings to ring out without being choked. It isn't the end of the world but it isn't perfect either. If it worked a little easier on the high strings it would get a 5-star review.

The build quality is superb though and I like the Newport range for being just that little bit slimmer and more ergonomic than the Performance range (though to be fair I still have the mark 1 and I understand they are a lot better now).

Now you can not use two capos at once.

The best 12-string capo ever
Matteo C 11.04.2019
All 12-string players know very well the problem with standard capos: due to the very different gauge of the two strings of each pair, you typically need a lot of pressure, which unavoidably affect the tuning. G7 found the perfect solution by a clever design of the pad, that compensates for the different gauges. Very low pressure is now enough to get a perfect sound without affecting the tuning: no need to tune the guitar every time you put the capo, so much time saved !
