I've don't play guitar, can someone explain this meme to me?

>>71684503
capos are like training wheels for a guitar and they are the mark of poor musicianship

>>71684511
it seems like they just have the same effect as retuning every string up X notes though. I guess I don't even understand what the point of one is.

>>71684503
They're a crutch and promote/facilitate basic playing and an underdeveloped library of chords. There's nothing inherently evil about them, but 95% of the people who use them are just not good enough to play/figure out alternate voicings.

>johnny marr
haha nice try guy

>>71684531
exactly what you said, it's easier to use a capo (and easier on the strings) than to tune up

>>71684511
>>71684573
There are literally chords that cannot be played without a capo.

Nice try though. A tool is a tool

I know barring chords can be tricky at first, but you'll get it down one day pal

>>71684531
So you don't bend badly or even break your guitar neck

>>71684890
That's literally false though

>>71684031
>who is Keith Richards

>>71684890
what chords? I can't think of any that REQUIRE a capo

>mike oldfield is a bad musician

>who is j mascis

>>71684531
Tuning strings that high will fuck your guitar up really badly

OP and retards who agree with him seem to think they are only for bar chords..?

>>71684031
>implying playing an open E major has the same timbre as playing a D major chord shape with a capo on the 2nd fret
wew lad

>>71686268
also nevermind the fact that a capo changes the timbre of the instrument but shortening its scale length, so even if a chord is playable without one it may not provide the desired sound

*"by" not "but"

>>71686355
the problem isn't the strings you fucking idiot, it's the tension on the neck

but hey if you wanna play a banana with a broken truss rod be my guest

>>71686325
this, using a capo produces a different sound than barre chords

>>71686050
>>71685485
think outside the box, there are dozens of chords that can only be played with either a capo or a third hand

capos have their place, but it is very beneficial to learn how to play in different keys without one

>>71686424
my guitar is made out of carbon fiber so that will literally never happen

It doesn't matter how you achieve a certain sound. It's that you achieve it. OP is advocating style over substance. Bad look all around.

You got a fifth finger you can play this chord with anon?

>>71686943
.... you can play this chord without a capo


thread is retarded but so are you

>>71687057
you can play the same chord without a capo, but not in that exact same shape/variation

I think when these people are saying that theres "chords you cant play without a capo" what they really mean is "theres variations of chords that are impossible to play without a capo" and that would be correct

>>71687057
I didn't the same fucking chord, i meant the voicing you inbred.

>>71687185
thank you anon

OP is retarded

capos are fine if you have been playing for only a few years
