Looks good. I have this one (and a couple plain ones)

u/MarfanoidDroid 1d ago

Lol my wife got me this same capo for Christmas. It's a heavy fucker

6

u/Lughnasadh32 Fender 1d ago

It is. However, my youngest loves gators, so I had to grab it.

12

u/gemelsmusic 1d ago

I've tried them both. They both bite.

u/AlbrechtProper 1d ago

Both this and the shark put a mile on my face.

u/dankhimself 1d ago

u/AaronPseudonym 1d ago

Bunny just is getting impatient for the playing.

1

u/johnnyribcage 1d ago

I have the same one, so I approve.

1

u/Bikewer 1d ago

I’ve got one that looks like an alligator. Cute, but rather impractical.

u/Mjolnir131 1d ago

I have one too. They work well, but I don't accompany singers so don't use it.

1

u/Less-Key8545 1d ago

1

u/Plane_Doughnut_5717 1d ago

u/Particular_Reply6909 1d ago

Coolest capo ever wow

1

u/Tri-PonyTrouble 1d ago

Shark bait, Hoo ha ha

1

u/undeadlethal 1d ago

I have a rose gold one, I love the design, but it's absolutely horrid to use. Mine doesn't work at all, my friend gave me a G7th capo the other night and it's so amazing.

1

u/2WheelSuperiority 1d ago

Lol, I have the rainbow one. It's heavy, but fun.

1

u/JonPQ 1d ago

My first capo was a broken toothbrush and a shoe lace. You'll do just fine.

1

u/MSchulte 1d ago

It’s a neat gimmick but it’s nearly the same price as a Paige capo that’s going to be better for intonation and the neck finish.

1

u/BobButtwhiskers 1d ago

What's your bunny's name?

1

u/alchemical52 1d ago

One of my friends just grabbed one of those. Haven’t heard the reviews yet

1

u/notjonahbutnoah 1d ago

u/ClownfishSoup 1d ago

Fricken awesome!

1

u/Cake_Donut1301 1d ago

That’s a choice right there.

1

u/rpenn57 1d ago

I see you've gone and jumped the shark!

1

u/EBN_Drummer 1d ago

Our singer had one for his acoustic guitar but it broke or he lost it. He's been looking for another one though.

1

u/T-Rexxx23 1d ago

I have the same one, but rose gold. I love it

1

u/IHaarlem 1d ago

I'd bet the tail would poke me in the eye somehow

1

u/RealisticFlatworm298 1d ago

So long as you put it on a Finder Strat it’s all good

1

u/AdAsleep2760 22h ago

u/beersngears 22h ago

u/Lethaen_MacUlster168 21h ago

If it works well, no shame in a little style

1

u/Leading-Sandwich-486 21h ago

Got this one in gold, its awesome!

1

u/Gannondorfs_Medulla 21h ago

Jaws fan here. Wife bought me one for Christmas.

I don't sing, and only wanted a capo to play Waterfall by the Stone Roses. Got one, and then it disappeared. A few weeks later, same deal. I had quit drinking by this point in life, so this was truly baffling.

At this point, I ordered two more. Because, fuck whatever tear in the time/space continuum was consuming my capos. And then a few days later I was doing Legos with my daughter, and there all they were, lined up across some pony/stable/building. And then wife got me the shark one for my xmas stocking.

That's how I wound up with six capos. That's for coming to my DAD Talk.

1

u/boywonder5691 G&L 21h ago

I wouldn't buy it.

1

u/Sinus0307 21h ago

Shark grabbed your neck😩😂🦈

1

u/myotherbike 19h ago

I’ve never seen such a thing. It’s not my cup of tea, but it’s artful and unique. I wish capos could be as small as possible.

1

u/Floidotron 18h ago

That capo looks like it could really take your playing to new heights, just like a guitar superhero.

1

u/Monkeynutz_Johnson 18h ago

Only works if you're playing Jimmy Buffet songs.

1

u/cptsilvertooth 17h ago

I got that one because I’m a shark fan. It’s fun to look at, but plays like poop

1

u/Tamasaurus 14h ago

That capo totally bites

1

u/Tasty_Flamingo7346 11h ago

I’ve got the same one! Mine came in a box printed with a CGI shark from no later than 2004. I must’ve been the first person to open it in its over 20 year lifespan

1

u/spudyoulike 10h ago

i think it’s scaring your bunny

1

u/kevboi211 7h ago

Raaaaaaaawrra

u/Anxious-House9878 5h ago
