## Overview

The D’Addario NS Artist Drop Tune Capo is a precision-engineered, lightweight aluminum capo designed for 6-string acoustic guitars. Featuring micrometer tension adjustment and patented trigger geometry, it delivers buzz-free, in-tune performance with effortless one-handed use. Integrated pick holder and tuner mounting bracket add practical convenience, making it a must-have for musicians seeking seamless drop tuning and professional-grade reliability.

## Description

Designed to simulate drop tuning on standard tuned guitars, the NS Artist Drop-Tune Capo utilizes a patented trigger geometry reducing the force required to open and close the capo while applying even tension regardless of neck profile. Combined with the micrometer tension adjustment and direct horizontal pressure, the NS Artist Drop-Tune Capo virtually eliminates pulling the strings side to side and the need to retune during use. Additionally, the trigger design and lightweight aluminum construction adds no obstruction or noticeable weight to the neck of the instrument. An NS Mini/Micro Tuner mounting bracket is included, allowing you to add tuning capabilities to the capo. Tuner sold separately. D'Addario products promise to be the most innovative professional musician's tools available. Our diverse capo line is no exception. Many of our groundbreaking models are the result of a productive joint effort between famed designer Ned Steinberger and Jim D'Addario. No matter what style of capo you prefer, D'Addario has the capo for you.

Review: Amazing partial capo - Been using a Kyser partial capo for a number of years and I always had to use an additional capo on the capo to decrease the tension it would put on the strings. No more. I'm not sure how they designed this capo to feel like half the pressure but still perfectly capo the strings without detuning them or being too light that the strings would buzz, but I've officially retired the Kyser and I've never been happier. Fantastic build quality, incredibly easy to use. I only wish I had purchased this sooner.
Review: I havent put this down since I bought it - So incredibly happy with this. I bought this and this is a game change in my playing style. I used to not pick up my acoustic as much and now this makes me want to play it even more! I like the adjustability of the capo. Highly recommend!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Not sure I understand how this capo works. If you leave the e string open on a std tuned guitar then barre all strings doesnt that defeat the purpose?**
A: Hello,   This capo is intended to be used on a guitar that is already in “Drop D” tuning. This is when you tune the low e-string down to D. This is a popular tuning for many styles of music. This capo allows the low e-string to remain in open D. You can move the capo up the neck to achieve different keys with the other five strings. I hope this is helpful!!

**Q: by "Drop D" do they mean just both E strings down a whole step?**
A: No Drop D means you tune the low E down a whole step for playing In the key of D...it gives a dulcimer like droning sound. With this capo the same thing can be accomplish (albeit in the key of E) by placing the capo on the 2nd fret. There is a notch in the capo that leaves the low E open while all other strings are capoed.
