Planet Waves NS Artist Capo – Precision Tri-Action Tuning Stability
Experience flawless intonation and effortless operation with the Planet Waves NS Artist Capo (SKU: PW-CP-10). Designed for 6-string acoustic and electric guitars, this capo utilizes patented Tri-Action geometry to provide even clamping pressure across the entire fretboard. Lightweight yet incredibly durable, the NS Artist Capo is engineered to eliminate string pulling and the constant need to retune when changing positions.
The Angkor Music "Perfect Pitch" Advantage
Most guitarists don't realize that standard spring-loaded capos often apply too much pressure, crushing the strings and pulling them sharp. We recommend the NS Artist Series because of its Micrometer Tension Adjustment. This allows you to dial in the exact amount of force needed to stop buzz without affecting your tuning. Whether you are playing a vintage electric with a thin neck or a modern acoustic with a chunky profile, this capo applies direct horizontal pressure, keeping your guitar perfectly in tune—even at the higher frets.
Engineering Excellence for the Stage & Studio
1. Patented Tri-Action Geometry
This innovative design reduces the force required to open and close the capo, making it easy to move mid-set while ensuring even tension regardless of your guitar's neck profile.
2. Micrometer Tension Adjustment
Eliminate fret buzz and sharp notes. Use the precision dial to adjust the clamping force to the specific requirements of your strings and action height.
3. Aircraft-Grade Aluminum
Constructed from lightweight aluminum, this capo adds no noticeable weight to your neck, ensuring your instrument's balance remains perfect during long performances.
4. Integrated Pick Holder & Tuner Mount
Includes a built-in slot for your guitar pick and a dedicated mounting bracket for an NS Mini/Micro Tuner, keeping your essential tools right where you need them.
Pro Performance Tip
When applying the NS Artist Capo, place it directly behind the fret wire, not in the middle of the fret. Use the micrometer dial to tighten it just until the buzz stops. This "minimum-pressure" technique preserves your string life and ensures the most accurate intonation possible for recording sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this capo fit a 12-string guitar?
The PW-CP-10 is specifically designed for 6-string instruments. For 12-string guitars, which require significantly more pressure to hold down the octave pairs, we recommend the Planet Waves NS 12-String Capo to ensure buzz-free performance.
Does the tuner mounting bracket include the tuner?
No, the capo includes the mounting bracket, but the NS Micro Tuner is sold separately. However, the integrated design makes it the cleanest and most efficient way to keep a tuner on your guitar without clipping it to the headstock.
Is this capo safe for nitrocellulose finishes?
Yes. The contact points of the NS Artist Capo are made from a high-quality material that is safe for all standard guitar finishes, including delicate nitrocellulose found on many vintage and high-end instruments.
