This is a beautiful piece of hardware and does a good job on my new Furch 12-string provided it stays on the lower frets. The problem is that most of the songs I need it for need the capo at the 7th fret (Hotel California, If I Needed Someone, Here Comes The Sun etc) and this requires a lot of clamping in order for the high E-strings to ring out without being choked. It isn't the end of the world but it isn't perfect either. If it worked a little easier on the high strings it would get a 5-star review.
The build quality is superb though and I like the Newport range for being just that little bit slimmer and more ergonomic than the Performance range (though to be fair I still have the mark 1 and I understand they are a lot better now).

I wanted to get a good capo for my 12-string, since the others that I have owned never worked probably without my hands getting hurt in the process. Finally I got this one and it's a lot easier to use. It works fine and I can use it.
The cons about this is just that it takes a bit too long to change it at live concerts

This is the only capo that I have found that works well on a 12 stringed guitar. It can be quite fiddly to set up, but can be adjusted to operate without applying too much pressure to the strings.
