A while back I received a request to provide a replacement insert for a Flexi-Capo purchased from another supplier. Luckily I was able to help the person concerned since I already had a couple of spare units available, but since then I have started stocking both inserts and finger spares, so anyone with a problem can now visit flexi-capo.com and buy whichever part they need. As far as I am aware this IS the only source of spares for the Flexi-Capo in Europe - and maybe beyond. And, yes, we will mail spares to almost any destination in the world.

Have fun. 

I figured everybody would be in holiday mode so no post last month. I hope you've all had a great summer so far (unless you live in the southern hemisphere, in which case I hope you've had a great winter so far!).

As many of you will know partial, or cut, capos such as those made by Kyser and others, are great fun to use. Trouble is that most of them are really made for the narrower neck of steel string guitars and generally will not fit the added width of classical guitars.

Flexi-Capos aren't so limited so you can rig your guitar to set the traditional 3rd, 4th and 5th strings without much effort. The only things to consider are that, as always for classical guitar necks, you will need to be a little more careful as to the way you position the fingers over each string due to the additional string spacing, and also experiment a little to find the best level of compression when tightening the Flexi-Capo so as not to distort the bridging rod on which the fingers slide and rotate.
