This capo works great if you have the "new style" that ships with blue printed product packaging. The original version of this capo had a thinner rubber that clamped against the strings and, due to the thinner rubber, there is not enough clearance over the open bass string and it would buzz on the capo. The old version was packaged in brown printed packaging. G7th has corrected this problem and the newer style cut capo's have a much thicker rubber that clamps the strings. The new style easily clears the open bass string and they work great. The capo is light and unobtrusive. It's easy to reach over so you can fret the bass string on the nut side of the capo. I really like the fact that you have great control of the clamping pressure. The only issue I have is that, for my guitar fret board curvature, the curvature of the rubber is a little too curved. In standard tuning, my 'B' string needs a touch more clamping to get the capo to press it to the fret. This is most likely just my guitar. None the less, this is a great capo. I was so impressed I bought three Newport capos (one regular capo and two cut capos).Read full review
