Planet waves capo with tuner

Great Capo, but limited neck thickness. Overpriced when purchased with tuner, better off buying the tuners 2/25$. I reviewed it on old site. I don't leave tuner mount on capo.  I already have NS Micro Tuners on all my acoustics that don't have built-in.

This is one of two series that Planet Waves has that utilizes the long spring and micrometer design, The other, called TriAction, has the lever down.

This particular model has an integrated pickholder (picks!,,pfftt!) and a bracket for attaching an NS Micro Tuner. While the idea of a tuner on a capo seems to make sense, the designers over looked the dampening effect on the string vibrations by the aluminum frame and the pads. Tuners on capos have a problem with high and low strings. The pads reduce the vibrations tuner detects

That is not the NS Artist, what you have looks like the NS Tri-Action or perhaps even the discontinued NS Dual-Action. One of the reasons I did not buy it becasue it was obvious that the  down-lever would interfere with the players hand.

Now if D'Addario wants to try to convince me otherwise, they can email for address to send a review sample . I am not paying 28$CAD for a capo that I cannot, a present, recommend.
