yeah, those cartoons are hilarious, anyways, i have a kyser and it does a great job, about cheap capos (if this hasnt already been said) they tend not to hold the strings down to good and allows for strings to bend giving it a "warped sound" if oyu get this, its usually not the guitars fault, its the capo, also ive had experience with cheap capos putting more pressue on one string than on another giving it a sound as if its out of tune or the tuning is different, again, its the capos fault, so buy a nice capo, capos also allow the sounds of chords to almost sound "better" and gives the song a richer tone, like in the song cold water on the albumn O, its capoed on the 5th fret and damo just plays normal chords that just sound so much better capoed on the 5th fret rather than not using a capo... all that to say, get a nice capo, its like buying a guitar, you invest little money, youll get little out of it, so spend a little more and be wise in what you buy, later...=TBone
