Thalia Capo

Way over priced, market target: people willing to pay a premium for a perception of quality. or because they think it makes them look good.
Seriously, capos with skins, like fashion covers for iPhones...

If you do a search for Thalia capos on the other forum (AGF) you can read a bunch about them there. I almost took the plunge on their Kickstarter page when they were starting out, but kind of glad I didn't. They seem to have had some first production run issues that had caused some damage to peoples' guitars, but I do believe they did what they could to rectify the situation on a case by case basis. Their second or 2.0 version production seems to have produced a good product and they did send out a lot of free replacements from what I have read.

Here is a link to threads about them at AGF if you're interested.

Oh, I'm not disagreeing that they are overpriced @sleigh , at least for my needs, and they may not even have all the bugs worked out yet, but I thought you'd appreciate being able to see how and where they started out and where they've gotten to now in case you had an extra $40-$50 burning a hole in your pocket and you could think of absolutely nothing else to spend it on. If I had a really "blinged" out or high end guitar one of these in an exotic matching wood might just be the ticket. Yeah, probably not though.

I'm not sure RobertW, but I don't think you can get exotic wood, abalone, metallic and pearlescent MacTac. That would just make it another cheap Chinese knock-off if you could.....

Ok not in  mactac, but you can get strips of dry-transfer wood, abalone, metallic and pearlescent .......
