Just about anybody who’s ever held a six-string knows Milton Kyser’s Quick-Change Capo. For 40 years, it’s been in every gig bag and at every gig, known as the standard for fast key changes and reliable intonation, and Kyser is proud to put its name on each and every one, crafted by hand from American materials, right here in East Texas. Milton Kyser worked hard to make it this way, and he never rested on his laurels, so to celebrate its 40th anniversary, Kyser is making the world’s best trigger capo even better.

Milton always liked to “make ‘em shine,” and that’s exactly what Kyser strove for in the 40th Anniversary Milton Kyser Signature Acoustic Quick-Change Capo. Limited to just 2020 units, this commemorative capo is an homage to the classic Quick-Change, topped with a chrome powder coating and specially adorned with Milton Kyser’s signature.

Kyser added an all-black silicone boot and appointments, including a unique, low-tension spring, designed to offer a lighter touch while still maintaining perfect tuning. It’s all wrapped up in a collectible box, complete with a Certificate of Authenticity and Quality Control signed by Milton’s great-niece, Kyser President and Owner Meredith Attebery.
