HOW IT HELPS YOU STAY IN TUNE

The Thalia Capo keeps your guitar in tune better than other capos. We do this by matching the radius of your capo to the radius of your guitar's fingerboard, ensuring even pressure across the strings and a happy guitar that stays in tune!

OUR STORY

One day in 2010 as 8-year old Thalia Bradley was playing guitar, she gazed up at the poster of Taylor Swift on her bedroom wall. Taylor was holding a beautifully inlaid Hawaiian Koa Taylor guitar. As she focused on Taylor's guitar, she had a big idea.

Thalia was using a capo that day, but as she stared at the poster she envisioned a much more beautiful capo for Taylor, one that would perfectly match her Hawaiian Koa Taylor guitar. That was the seed of an idea that would ultimately lead to the invention of the Thalia Capo.

For Thalia's father Chris was an inventor and guitar player and he loved Thalia's idea, but he also thought the capo could be redesigned to make it much easier to use. They went to work and some 70 prototypes and four years later it was ready.

The "reverse action" design of the new Thalia Capo makes it easy to apply with just the fretting hand using the same pinching action as a barre chord. And of course it also features exotic wood and abalone shell inlays, just as Thalia had imagined.

CONSUMER REVIEWS

So adaptable and beautiful and downright cool!

I first encountered a Thalia capo watching a Celtic band perform. I was intrigued by how easy it was to move the capo on the Irish bouzouki. As a very amateur multi-instrumentalist, it took me almost a year to take the plunge and buy a Thalia capo. Not only is it beautiful, it adapts easily to both my Greek and Irish bouzoukis, tenor banjo (with the sleeve or the thicker pad), mandolin, and mandola, (and even with some success on my viola, which I tried mostly out of curiosity, and it works on either the higher 3 or lower 3 strings because of the curvature of the fingerboard).

I do have some arthritis in my thumb joints and have had to learn to install and remove the capo since it has a strong spring action and does not fit over the nut. I've decided it works best for me over the bass side of the fretboard (instead of the treble side). Once it's on, it's so easy to move around!

And it's so pretty! The folks at the nursing home where I do most of my performing love it!

(I accidentally wrote this for a set of picks I also purchased but wanted it be attached to the proper product so I've added it here.)

My husband loves the new capo!

I bought the abalone capo and abalone guitar strap for my husband for Christmas. He absolutely loves the quality and craftsmanship of both and is exyremely happy. Thank you!

I already have a few capos I acquired over time but none are as well built and absolutely stunning 🤩 as this one! Every guitarist deserves to have a thalia capo, I am happy with owning a few and proud to show them off 👍👍

Very nice capo, it’s my second one! I was hoping for one with a more figured slice of koa. But I’m not mad at it either. When the lights go down nobody can see it anyway.
