Product Overview

Lightweight and Low Profile
Newport Capo

The G7th Newport is meticulously designed for your fretting hand, eyes and ears.

The cunningly concealed flip lever design is perfect for heavy strings, high actions and 12 strings, with a knob for fine-tune tension adjustments while on the neck.

Available for 6 strings, Classical, 12 strings, Banjo & Mandolin and as 3- and 5-string partial capos.

"Finally, this is THE ONE. A capo that has the massive strength to survive super-heavy strings, crazy tunings, and even string bending, and the precision to be able to perfectly tune the pressure to my needs. And yet it still looks so stealthy."

Jon Gomm
UK based acoustic solo artist/singer-songwriter/virtuoso guitarist

Compensated String PadTM

Our patented Compensated String PadTM allows you to fret all 12 strings at the same time and with the same tension by compensating for the different gauges of strings using carefully designed ridges in the silicone string pad.

Partial capos
