Grover (the tuner company) now makes capos.
Their design is a modification of Kyser's, with the upper lever shortened in a simpler curve.
They claim:
1 Unique offset design allows more room for your thumb
2 Effortless to position and disengage
3 Stage-friendly non-glare matte finish
4 cheap! $12.99 at Sweetwater
1 - Upper Pad area is offset and MUCH wider than most capos in order to move the capo body a 1/4" away from the players hand. Does it help? I don't have a problem with normal Kysers, so I did not see any improvement.
2 - I find the upper lever digs into one's palm when using
3 - The powered finish is a bit uncomfortable to hold, much like sandpaper.. Perhaps you could use capo to polish frets.
2-Bottom pad looks exactly like a Kyser, as does the spring. Maybe some parts interchangeable. Perhaps Kyser makes them for Grover?
4 - I have seen better quality at lower prices.
