Bob Kilgore’s Harmonic Capo
Invented by fingerstyle guitarist Bob Kilgore, the Harmonic Capo is unlike conventional capos. Rather than pressing down on the strings, it barely touches them. It sits on the guitar’s neck with a strap and a pair of adjustable supports, and six adjustable soft rubber pads rest gently on the strings. Place it over a harmonic point and it turns open strings into harmonic tones, opening entirely new possibilities of note combinations and progressions in your playing. What’s more, it won’t prevent you from playing normally above or below it.

MSRP $34.95

For me the market is saturated. I look at these,at Schroeder, at LSL, and the other myriad of builders and ask , why? I guess they have done the market research, and certainly know it a lot better than me, but I just don't see the need for the more guitars like these.
