zZounds Gear Experts Say...
The Planet Waves NS Capo works as both a capo and a chromatic tuner. It's lightweight, and the tension knob is easily adjusted.
Overview
The product of an ongoing collaboration between Ned Steinberger and D'Addario, the NS Capo Tuner combines the widely acclaimed NS Dual Action Capo with a Planet Waves precision chromatic tuner. The first of its kind, the NS Capo Tuner provides accurate tuning at any fret or when clipped on the headstock of your acoustic or electric guitar.
The patented compound action of the Dual Action Capo reduces the force necessary to open and close the capo. It also eliminates side pulling the strings out of tune, a common issue with standard trigger-type capos. Lightweight, accurate and easy to use, simply adjust the micrometer tension knob just enough to eliminate string buzzing and enjoy repeatable in-tune performance at every fret. Designed to fit standard 6- and 12-string guitars.
How To Use:
- Press Power Button to activate tuner. Center green light will flash when power comes on.
- The upper lights indicate sharp conditions in the same manner as the lower lights indicate flat conditions.
- When tuner recognizes the note 'E' the center green LED will flash.
- Tuner will automatically power off after 4 minutes.

"Planet Waves NS Capo Guitar Tuner is a MUST Have!!!"
Verified Purchaser
zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
I will never again be without one of these. Every guitarist who uses a capo needs one.
Sound
I use a capo on probably 85% of my songs. If I'm not, my lead guitarist probably is. I bought one for him, soon after I received mine. Obviously, it important to be in tune and this little gizmo makes sure you are.
Features
Someone should have come up with this idea years ago.
Ease of Use
It's extremely easy to use, but it does have a specific use. It's NOT designed to tune a completely out of tune guitar. It's designed to TWEAK your tuning as you capo up and down the neck.
Quality
Seems to be made well. Time will tell.
Value
Fantastic value!!!

Haven't had to use support.
