How to Use a Capo: Learn & Master Guitar Tips

The video above shows you how to use a Capo when playing guitar.  If you’re not familiar with what a Capo is, its a guitar accessory that is used to raise the pitch of your guitar.  This allows you to play in a different key while using the same fingerings you’d use if you played the open strings.  To use the Guitar Capo, just put it directly behind the fret, and position it as straight as you can get it. Ideally you should place it between the first and seventh fret so you have plenty of room to play.
