Single-string capos - a game changer or just a one-off?

Andy_Fretlocks1

Hey Guys - we're looking for some people to test our new single-string capo. 

We think that it will enable guitarists to play impossible music - we but don't want to place any limit on the possibilities. 

We also reckon that once you get into it, you might use it for different tunes - for others you might just use it for one type of song.

Launching in a few weeks.www.fretlocks.com

Let us know via twitter

Nice. I think antoine dufour uses a capo in memories of the future which can be adjusted mid song - giving him two tunings in one song.

So there is definitely a market for different capos.

Ooh thanks for that - really great stuff.

Sign up at our website if you want to try it out.

Seen similar used on 10 string classical guitars by Brazilian players. These look a bit tidier though.

Ah thanks Evilmags! (and apols for the delayed response - we've been busy getting the launch plan ready).

If any of you are around in London, you can come to our launch party on October 9th: http://bit.ly/Fretlockslaunch - feel free to bring along a few guitar folk?

Otherwise, we're about to launch our online site next week so follow us on twitter or sign up for our updates at www.fretlocks.com 

Best wishes

they look really good, look like they wouldn't be too noticiable playing the other strings. Any idea on pricing?

Andy_Fretlocks1

Ah thanks Matthew

We'll be giving away some samples at our launch on 9th Oct: http://bit.ly/Fretlockslaunch

You can also buy a set of 6 for £15 or a limited edition tin for £25 for 12 Fretlocks (4 of each sizes.)

I know he was a bit forward on some threads but it looks like andy has quite an interesting product

Like the idea of these, but can see no info as to how they actually "stick" onto your fretboard.

Superglue perhaps? :-)
