Lightweight and Low Profile Newport Capo
The G7th Newport 12 String guitar capo is specifically designed for 12 string acoustic and electric guitars and combines a flip-lever action, a low-profile shape that doesn't get in the way of your fretting hand and our patented Compensated String Pad™.

The Compensated String Pad™ allows all 12 strings to fret at the same time and under the same tension, dramatically reducing tuning problems whilst fretting all 12 strings securely and accurately.

Clever design - Quick-release
Improving on existing quick release designs, the Newport flip lever allows you to attach and remove the capo easily and to adjust the tension while in place on the guitar neck.

Perfect for 12 strings - Compensated String Pad™
G7th's patented Compensated String Pad™ allows you to fret all 12 strings at the same time and with the same tension by compensating for the different gauges of strings using carefully designed ridges in the silicone string pad.

Clean, clear and true - Safeguard your tone
Maintains the tone of your instrument thanks to the carefully engineered string pads, designed to reduce vibration dampening and loss of tone.

Easy adjustment - Dial in the pressure
Thanks to the fine-tune adjustment knob, the Newport capo delivers the right amount of pressure to your strings, even over heavy strings, high actions or 12 strings. Spend less time retuning and more time playing!

Protect Your neck - Internal Silicone Pads
With non-reactive, protective silicone pads at every touchpoint, you can be sure that the finish on your instrument is safe when using a Newport capo.

• Compensated String Pad™

Q & A


Question: The picture you show of this capo shows it with a flat string pad but from G7th it is supposed to have a compensated pad. Does what you sell have the compensated pad?
- asked on Jul 5, 2024
Answer: Sorry for the confusion.

This is a generic photo.

The product in question DOES have the compensated pad, as described on the G7th website.

Works as advertised, compresses octave strings without putting standard strings out of tune. Adjustable pressure. Solidly constructed. My only criticism is that it does not open wide enough to put in or take off quickly and conveniently.

The G7th Newport capos apply very precise and even pressure across all strings on my electric and acoustic guitars. They are very lightweight and easy to put on and remove. I own capos from most of the major brands, and by far, G7th are the best capos I have used!
