oh, i think they work but they are not as practical...hey, i read you loud and clear...i guess i never became familiar with capoed music til video became so easy to come by and i started watching a lot of folk and pop stuff...back in the 80s i could hardly even see the guitars let alone the capos from my nosebleed $18 Massey seat, lol
ok, why didnt they make guitars so that the top two strings are C and F instead of B and E...that way each string would be 5 semitones apart, consistent instead of having the one off 4 semitone jump? i know it wouldnt be as easy to play a simple D chord but that can't be the answer, can it? lol
btw, for folks sifting through this thread, there are many wonderfully solid guitar players as well as lovely singers amongst those providing feedback, i can tell you that from first hand (or 2nd hand via technology) listening
thanks all
