Very nice vid... thanks for the great info on the capo! I use one already but it's nice to know even more about how and why. :)
Also, I have a "lucky" pick that is from the Fender headquarters in Arizona (it's hot pink, heart-shaped, and thin). I got it when visiting with my brother-in-law who designed amps for them at the time (I was about 16). Anyway, I call it lucky because it always plays well, is unique, AND it has dodged the sockmonster all these years!! :D
are you stupid!? it isen't kapo...... it is capo!!!! i go mad of people that have leart how to touch a guitar lay out vid of em self on youtube!!!!! get a brain boy!!!
@MrNiceboy5 He spelt it CAPO in the title you dumbass! And where do you get the idea to call someone stupid? When you can't even complete a sentence or spell. You should acquire some education before you make yourself look a dumbass. GET A BRAIN MR. NICE BOY!
it has some sort of strap which is attached to a piece of plastic bar thing and you have to lock that piece of plastic on some teeth shaped things and voila....
I found it really weird though. it wasn't like any capo i've seen before.
@xXElLonelyBoyXx when people play with 2 capos they are sightly different they have different rubber on them to only hold down cretin strings on the neck this allows them to effectively play in many different keys look at trace bundy love song if your interested about this he used like 4 i think
Another useful application of the capo is when two (or more) guitarists are playing a tune, one (or more) of them can use the capo so that they are playing the same chords but in different positions. This is an easy way to expand the harmonic texture of a song without really changing anything.
I love these beginner lessons. My neighbor's been asking for lessons, and they give me a real good idea of what you really need to teach early on. You rock man.
Thank You Sir!

it's a bit different. you don't clip it.
it has some sort of strap which is attached to a piece of plastic bar thing and you have to lock that piece of plastic on some teeth shaped things and voila....

What I find confusing is when someone plays with two capos. Really confusing, I don't get that.
xXElLonelyBoyXx 2 years ago
When people use two capos, they're PARTIAL CAPOS, google it. Its like a capo that only bars a couple of strings.

I keep all your picks safe inside the socks I take from the laundry. when the sock gets full I steal a capo to hold it closed.
