Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: Gurney Date: 31 May 10 - 12:16 AM A mind-boggling concept, Dan. First you extend the body and put on 12 frets.....Then you find a 12" capo..... Then you find strings..... Please post a photo if you even try! Did you see the chording capos? Much like an Autoharp wotsit. Bar? Key? |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: Dan Schatz Date: 30 May 10 - 10:02 PM I sure could use an Autoharp capo.... Dan |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: Leadfingers Date: 30 May 10 - 07:32 PM I sent the info to Anders and he is going to add it to the site ! I'll be famous yet !!! |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: JHW Date: 30 May 10 - 06:19 PM I didn't LOOK for it, the link came in an ad I once saw at St.Chartier festival a Hurdy Gurdy with built in capo but have no idea now which luthier made it. Anyone know? (Museum site owner asks for any other examples of capos inc built-in.) |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: alex s Date: 30 May 10 - 06:29 AM Leadfingers - tell us how you do it (please) |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: Gurney Date: 29 May 10 - 08:14 PM Voice too deep for the telephone, Joe? |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: Joe_F Date: 29 May 10 - 08:02 PM At my age, I need a capo for *my* neck. |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: Leadfingers Date: 29 May 10 - 07:55 PM Dan - What bothers me is that people have the time to LOOK for sites like that ! |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: Dan Schatz Date: 29 May 10 - 07:47 PM I don't know what disturbs me more - that a site like this exists or that I have already learned some useful tips from it. Dan |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: Leadfingers Date: 29 May 10 - 06:23 PM And NO sign of the Banjo Fifth String Capo that I make for myself ! Uses a Carton Staple and a rubber band ! Takes about five minutes to make , and costs Nowt !! |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 29 May 10 - 11:58 AM That link was meant for this thread Here's the intended one |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: Charley Noble Date: 29 May 10 - 10:04 AM McGrath- I don't think your link above goes to the intended website but was hijacked by aliens. Charley Noble |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: Bill D Date: 29 May 10 - 10:04 AM cute, McGrath...but...ummm..?? |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 29 May 10 - 08:53 AM I really liked the Poor Boy Capos section - especially the The Poor Boy 5:th String Capo. |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: Zhenya Date: 29 May 10 - 03:40 AM How did it never occur to me to put a capo on my fiddle?! Not sure I want to be chewing on matchsticks though... Thanks for posting this. I had a few moments of nostalgia on recognizing some capos of my past that I hadn't thought of in years, and also especially enjoyed seeing the antique capos. |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: Martha Burns Date: 29 May 10 - 02:09 AM What a neat website! Thanks for sharing. |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 29 May 10 - 01:27 AM He mentions that he is looking for a velcro closed capo - I have seen them for guitars, but I don't play guitar... |
Subject: RE: Tech: Capo Museum - (Online) From: Charley Noble Date: 28 May 10 - 04:03 PM Simply amazing! And over in this cabinet you will see...! I especially like the capo made of heavy wood with the dowel tighteners. Using that you'll never fret again! I don't like the saw for shortening the neck. Charley Noble |
