D'ADDARIO NS TRI-action Capo Silver

A Capo Designed by Ned Steinberger for Demanding Musicians

Designed by Ned Steinberger in collaboration with the D'Addario team, the NS Tri-Action continues the legacy of Planet Waves accessories known for their practical and innovative approach. The goal is clear: to offer a precise capo that is easy to use daily and capable of adapting to different neck shapes without compromising intonation.

For 6-String Acoustic or Electric Guitars, in Rehearsal or on Stage

This capo is specifically designed for 6-string guitars, both acoustic and electric. It can be easily operated with one hand, a real advantage during quick changes between songs or while playing. When not in use, it can be clipped onto the headstock of the instrument to stay within reach without interfering with your playing.

Horizontal Pressure, Fine Adjustment, and Built-in Pick Holder

Thanks to pressure applied directly horizontally, the NS Tri-Action avoids pulling the strings outward, which helps keep tuning more stable. Its tension adjustment screw allows precise pressure tuning according to your string gauge, action, and targeted fret, enabling accurate playing with a natural feel. For convenience, the capo also features a built-in pick holder : ideal for quickly storing a pick when switching to fingerstyle playing.
