Jim Dunlop 88DB Trigger Capo Clas Blk Reviews
Have used this capo for around 6 months with my classical guitar. It is well constructed with a nice black finish and seems very durable. It secures the strings with no buzzing up to the 5th fret (the highest fret I've capoed), but realize that this model is made for a guitar with a flat, not radiused, fretboard. Some newer cross-over classical-looking guitars actually have radiused fretboards, and this capo probably would not work effectively with those. I paid .99 for it, but notice there is another Dunlop black classical guitar capo listed for around .00 less. Can anyone tell me what the difference is? The pictures look identical, although the other one does not have the designation "88B." The only flaw in the item was a deep scratch in the black finish, probably made during assembly when the strong spring was fitted--Dunlop needs to improve their assemby QC. Also, a note of caution: If you use this capo with an expensive guitar handle it securely! Once I was careless putting the capo on with my left hand (my non-dominant hand). The capo slipped, and the spring recoiled sending it flying within inches of ricocheting off of my guitar. Because is it hefty aluminum, the capo would have left a painful ding in the finish. Similar caution is advised when removing it from your guitar. Overall a very nice capo, and it sure beats chopsticks and rubberbands.
