These videos are so brief they are nearly useless. If you know enough to type capo in the search you know more than this. This channel proves its worthlessness everytime I watch a video from it.

Oh, that's how you use a capo? I had just been wearing mine on my penis as I played to transpose the tuning. That clarifies everything.

I use my capo to trap mice. Works better than my cat tbh.

Actually, you don't center the Capo in the fret at all. You place the Capo against the fret wire to eliminate the chance of fret buzz.
