can't you just tune your A and D strings up instead of having to use that capo?

[markroachmusic2]

@MoosDas1 alternate tunings are always an option, but with the cut capo you can also play most standard open position chords as well... just increases flexibility in my opinion. Incidentally, you'd have to tune your A, D and G up to achieve the same voicing the cut capo creates.

good video, nicely done. But it would be much more useful if you named the actual chord you're playing, not the shape of it which is totally different from what you're playing. Cool tutorial tho

where can i buy the short cut capo?

[Iamajanitor01]

@MoosDas1 It isn't the same. With the cut capo you can still play normal bar chords with normal finger positions. If you tune the A, D and G up, you won't have the option of playing the normal bar chords (with normal finger positions).

@hawkpanther7 You have to take a clamp capo and actually cut it. Cut an area to leave the top E open and then cut the bottom portion of the capo that would allow the bottom two strings to be open.

thanks for this video it was sooooooooooo useful for me as i am trying different things, wanted to try a partial capo so i do not need to tune down too much

Kyser makes them. For a cheap and easy way, if you already have a Kyser capo just flip it backwards and make it "capo" the 3,4,5 strings. It has worked with all the Kysers I have used, just need to move it around a little to make sure it isn't muting the 2 or 6 strings. Try it out.
