I've had this capo for three years now and it still works as good as the first day I got it (no signs of wearing down either). This capo is easy to use and light weight. Fits in your pocket and has a great design. It's the easiest and most convenient capo to use! Don't worry about it affecting the sound of your guitar, it holds a tune very well and doesn't leave any indents on your strings. It's durable and it takes a second to move it from one fret to another. Best choice in my opinion.
