Customer reviews about Harley Benton HBCA-K Acoustic/Electric Capo

Solid, rattled, but easily fixed

rf31 30.08.2023

Solid capo. When received, the plastic inserts in the metal frame of the handle part rattled or buzzed a little while playing. This was easily fixed by wrapping a little electrical tape around the handle. If you don't care so much about appearance, then overall value is good.

An okay capo that does the job for home jamming

AdamK95 18.12.2020

While I was on the fence about spending a whole lot of money and a capo like those fancy Thalia ones, I think I am convinced a bit more. This capo is very nice in the beginning when the spring is tight but will eventually loosen. I like the fact that it's easy to use and you can snap it on quickly mid song, I've used it countless times in gigs for that. Normally on cheaper capos they apply force differently on different strings, making some of them intoned and some of them sharp, this one does it very lightly but not to the point that it's audible for the standard audience. Overall I think it's a good buy to learn how to use the capo but if I could chose again I would buy a more expensive one that's more dependable.

Acceptable but next time I wil buy another type

Vedran_ZG 31.12.2021

This capo serves the purpose but I hear the frequency noice and vibration coming from the metal feather that is loosely fixed to the capo body. This causes a need for manipulation with capo while not using the capo (needs to be stored out of guitar neck so that it does not produce unwanted noise.

Very strong spring

Stian Larsson 10.12.2022

The spring in this is as stiff as a hand work-outer- thing.. that’s not good. I’m not comfortable putting this on a neck.

It works perfect and as described.. if you wanna risk denting your neck.. great option.

I should also mention you can’t cut the spring to release tension.. it’s not a spring full coil. The spring has “legs” and it’s only wrapped twice.

Huge

krsaulitis 18.03.2019

This capo is pretty big and doesn't look as good on the guitar. Also, the paint had some bubbles, looks like it will chop off after longer usage... But the capo was cheap, so can't really complain

Good on the guitar, but...

Riley.Dedio 23.11.2024

This capo works fine, but has an annoying rattle when stored on the head stock between use. Need to store it off the guitar.

Seems like a good capo, but...

RB Sound Touch 18.10.2019

... the main issue with it was that the spring seems to be too strong, what effects in detuning the guitar (slightly, but noticeable, when You play with other musician or some recording). And I tried two of them with the same result. Something to improve and it could be well made and very affordable simple capo. I ended up buying something much more pro.

It does the job, but would be better if the handler was positioned at the back

Michael Polimeneris 16.05.2021

Decent overall, it does the job.
But it would be better if the handler was positioned at the back when plugged/locked to don't bother.
Coming when closed to the front of the fret, I'm experiencing difficulties with Barre Chords, those with the first finger on the 1st fret.
