The Kyser® Drop-D Quick-Change™ opens up a world of creative possibilities for guitarists who want richer, fuller sounds without the hassle of retuning or relearning chord shapes. This innovative tool allows you to explore new sonic territories whilst maintaining the familiar fingering patterns you already know.
Position the Drop-D on the 2nd fret and play your standard triangular D chord shape - but this time, strum all six strings instead of just the high four. The result is a beautiful E chord with the low string perfectly tuned to E as well, creating that coveted Drop-D tuning sound. Your regular G chord will ring out exactly as it always has, maintaining its familiar tone and character.
When playing an E minor chord, you’ll need to fret the low E string at the same fret as the capo, either above or below it, since the low string remains open. The beauty of the Kyser® Drop-D lies in its versatility - it can be positioned on any fret and used in either standard or inverted position, giving you maximum flexibility for your musical explorations.
- Partial Capo that only frets strings 1-5 (High E to A)
- Easy one-hand on/off
- Allows for Drop-D style voicings without re-tuning
