OctaveTouch Standard Tension Fretpads, work with all 6-strings, while High Tension Fretpads are designed to handle 12-string, Mandolins, Ukuleles & thin necked guitars. For more information on our all NEW OctaveTouch™ fretpads, please see this blog post: OctaveTouch™
Our Teflon Fretpad’s material attributes are the complete opposite of rubber. While rubber is soft and binding, Teflon is hard and slippery. These characteristics, produce a noticeably more vibrant tone and allow the strings to bend and slide beneath the capo, which help to keep your guitar in tune. This makes teflon act like a finger instead of a nut. Comes in both standard tension and high tension (2mm thicker) configurations. Teflon Standard Tension Fretpads, work with all 6-strings, while High Tension Fretpads are designed to handle Mandolins, Ukuleles & thin necked guitars. * Not to be used with 12-strings or Baritone guitars.
Our Rubber Fretpads are harder than our OctaveTouch fretpads but are still soft enough to bind the strings to the fret, keeping them from moving beneath the capo. This makes them act like a nut. Traditional capos have always used rubber due to its conforming characteristics. Every Thalia Capo comes with a set of our Standard & High Tension Rubber Fretpads.
These rubber fretpads convert any 200 series Thalia Capo into a Esus Partial Capo. When the capo is installed from the treble side (bottom) of the neck, strings 2-3-4 or 1-2-3 will be fretted. When installed from the bass side (top) of the neck, strings 3-4-5 or 4-5-6 can be fretted. These are very useful with alternate tunings.Perfect fit! Shipped fast.
I bought 2 extra fret pads to match my neck radius to customize for a drop d and a DADGAD capo. Just quickly change the pad and you have a new tuning!
I have a Taylor 562 8 string baritone, 2 octave strings, the A and D pairs ( b to b tuning ). The Taylor forum recommended Thalia. A quick message exchange with Gareth, Thalia's support manager steered me to this product ( and capo ). I am still experimenting with clamping the capo from the top (low b) or underneath ( hi b ) gives me the test results. I haven't tried it yet on my 12 string. And the capo is beautiful and easy to operate. The pad inserts easily in the capo, and can be switched out easily for use with 6 string.
I purchased a couple of capos a few years back which I have enjoyed using and love. However, over time felt that they weren’t quite as effective as they had been. I didn’t need a new capo (although I would have loved one!)
The new fret pads did the job brilliantly. The capos are working like they did originally and I’ve saved a few pounds (I’m from the UK 🇬🇧 )
Extremely satisfied with my capo and the customer service was top notch! Thank you!
