bought for my father
My father plays old songs on his acoustic guitar every evening and his old capo broke down suddenly. I got this one for him last month. He is very happy with it because the curved shape fits the fretboard nicely and he can change keys easily with one hand without any hassle. Very sturdy build.

acche se kaam karta hai travel ke liye
travel krte waqt bag me dalne ke liye liya tha qki metal body hai to tootne ka darr nahi hai. ek hath se fatfat key change ho jata hai jam me. rubber padding ki vajah se scratch bhi nahi padte guitar pe. thoda heavy spring hai par practice ke sath aadat ho jati hai.

gifted to my wife for her acoustic
gftd this to my wife for her bday since she started learning guitar recently. she liked the gold finish a lot and uses it during practice. delivery was on time. only thing is spring is quite tight so need to fix tuning slightly after clamping on higher frets.
