Alan Desmond Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Guess many players probably do some thing, similar to me. When I learn songs I often start by going to ultimate guitar site to call up their original song tab. It's a good starter but for me anyway I don't stay exactly with chords they suggest & simplify any that are complex. Many times I'm finding that I can get closer to the tones I want to hear when playing using a capo. So for anyone who doesn't use or hasn't tried using one. I recommend to try pick or play / strum chord notes with capo on frets 2, 4, 5 Hope some find this helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technojeff Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 My main use for the capo is to re-pitch the song for my voice. I also find that some of the ukulele chord sites have some really good simplified chord sequences for songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Desmond Posted April 8 Author Share Posted April 8 Hi Jeff. Yes lots of people say they don't like Capo's. But for me I've found so many classic song that sound so much better with Capo Use. Then of course the other big thing is that it's much easier for more accurate chord changes when you stretch less. But a personal choice each to their own.

Randy Myers Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 I use a capo pretty much only on the songs that it is recommended for, such as Hotel California. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
