Frequently Asked Questions

Is the CAPO VIVA suitable for my guitar?

The CAPO VIVA is suitable for most common guitars with the following dimensions:

Fretboard widths from 42 to 58mm.

Fretboard thicknesses from 19 to 24mm.

The distance between the outermost strings and the outer edge of the fretboard should be at least 3mm on each side.

How can I open and close the CAPO VIVA?

When the CAPO VIVA is open, you can switch it to the closed position by pressing down on the string arm. To do this, grip the string retainer as far out as possible to achieve maximum leverage and use only minimal force. You can reopen the CAPO VIVA by operating the side locking lever.

Which orientation of the lever for opening the side holder is best suited for me?

In principle, both lever orientations are suitable for both left- and right-handed users. Most CAPO VIVA users prefer the lever to be facing away from the playing side. This means that most right-handed users choose the "right" orientation, while most left-handed users choose the "left" orientation.

Can the CAPO VIVA be operated with one hand?

Yes, all functions of the CAPO VIVA can also be operated with one hand. This includes attaching and removing it from the guitar neck, opening and closing the string clamp, and moving it along the frets. Adjusting the clamping pressure using the silver knob can also be done with one hand.

How do the replaceable string protector pads work?

The CAPO VIVA comes with two interchangeable string protector pads. Included in the delivery are one string protector pad for radius fretboards and one string protector pad for flat fretboards. This allows you to use the CAPO VIVA on as many of your instruments as possible. Thanks to the design of the string protector pads, you can easily pull them out of the string holder and push the second pad in.

How much are the shipping costs?

Shipping of the CAPO VIVA within Germany is free.

Can the band to which the CAPO VIVA is attached still be used?

Like any capo, the CAPO VIVA must also be attached to the guitar neck. In the open position, the blocked fret can also be used with limitations.

Do I need to make any modifications to my guitar to use the CAPO VIVA?

No, no modifications to your instrument are necessary to enjoy the benefits of the CAPO VIVA.

My strings are not being pressed down properly. What can I do?

Make sure the CAPO VIVA is snug against the guitar neck. Use the silver adjustment knob for this. The arrow indicates the direction in which to turn to increase the clamping force. Position the CAPO VIVA as close to the fret as possible. Make sure the quick-release lock is engaged.

Is the CAPO VIVA audible through a connected amplifier?
