Question: I have a question about capos!?
I own a metal capo, but whenever I use it I place it as close to the fret as possible but I still get string buzz!. So I'm considering buying a new one!. I noticed my guitar teacher and a few other guitarists use-what looks to me-like a plastic capo!.

How much does that cost!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Hi

If you have an acoustic guitar, you will need a Capo that has a slight curve and made for acoustic!. I suspect that you are using the classical version of the capo which is flat and that is why it buzzes!.

Here is a link to give you an idea how they are shaped!.

I've had one of these for over 10 years, It's been great, If it ever wears out, or I loose it I will absolutely buy another!. They are around $15!.
