Jackson Browne (Running on Empty, new release: Looking East): "The Bird of Paradise is a thing of beauty and it works."

Buck Dharma (Blue Oyster Cult): "The Bird is the Word!"

Frank Morey (Blues guitarist, songwriter) CD Bird of Paradise's rotatable slide has been a major part of both my writing and live performances. As a performing songwriter and the only guitarist in my band, it is important to get back to the chords as soon as a lead is over. This slide is essential"

James Marron (Classical guitarist) CD Spring Rising The Bird of Paradise capo is the obvious solution to using a capo on the classical guitar. It is easy to use and allpies just the right pressure. Specializing in contemporary classical guitar music, I'm often called upon to use slide techniques interspersed with intricate fingerings. This slide makes these transitions so much easier.

Peter Davis (Radio Imagination) "When it comes to capos, forget the rest, the Bird is the Best!"

Country Joe McDonald (Fixin' To Die Rag, Woodstock, "Gimme an 'F'"): "I've been playing acoustic guitar with a capo for 40 years and the Bird of Paradise is the best capo I've ever used. It is effortless and it doesn't put the guitar out of tune."

Allison Bert (Concert guitarist, Director of Guitar Studies, Syracuse University): The Bird of Paradise is a brilliant t concept. This is the easiest and best capo I've ever used. And it is pretty.

Bobby DeVito I love the slide, it's the best i've found yet for the hybrid sort of playing i do.

Happy Traum (Homespun Tapes) "The Bird exerts a nice even pressure on the fingerboard, keeping the in tune all the way up the neck. And it looks cool, too!"

Laurence Juber (Acoustic virtuoso)"I always use the Bird in the studio, because it's the only capo that I don't have to always retune when I use it."

Doyle Dykes (Counrty music wizard) "The Bird of Paradise Capo is one of the most clever ideas I've seen in a capo. It's cool looking, it's fun and it works! I use mine all the time and encourage other players to try one out."

Neil Zaza (new release: Sing): "I absolutely love the Bird of Paradise. I have been using it and I think it will play a huge part in my live show and on the next record." "I just wanted to let you know that I have completed writing the upcoming tunes for my next record and Ihave to tell you that the Bird made all the difference in the world to my playing and creative process! Most every tune on my upcoming record was written with the Bird in use so in turn, just about every song on the CD will feature the Bird. Using it really opened up some sonic possibilities and creative corridors that I would not have had unless it was for the Bird. it definitely left an inprint in the music itself. Thanks so much."

John Sebastian (The Lovin Spoonful): "Wow"

Stephen Aron ("one of America's foremost guitarists" Guitar Player): "The Bird is easy, consistent and reliable (even on the 7th fret), and comfortable. Thank you for an ingenious design."Jan Krist (Silent Planet Recording Artist): I've been playing in clubs for over 20 years. I've used every capo known to woman (or man). I use to tell the audiences, " I like to make sure the guitar is in tune and then put a capo on and totaly do the whole tuning thing all over again, it makes for a smooth transition into a song right?" Well, I had to drop that part of my act, because the Bird of Paradise Capo puts such even pressure on the neck that it keeps its tune! I love these capos. I don't use anything else anymore. Thanks.

Caryl P. Weiss: (TwinStar Records recording artist, Prarie Home Companion): "After 17 years I've finally found a capo that works on all my guitars. I didn't have to retune once in 2 hours! And it's cute!

Kenny Vaughan Nashville guitarist: "I own them all, but the Bird is the capo I use."

Inner Groove "Besides looking great, the Bird of Paradise keeps my Taylor 514-C sounding great at every gig". - Blair Frodelius "They're cool, easy to use, and keep my Gibson Les Paul in perfect tune" - Joe Policastro "What can I say? The Bird of Paradise rocks!!!"

Severin Browne (New Release: Edge of the World). Through the years I've tried every capo out there, and the Bird is by far the best. It is truly a spark of genius!

Talia Paul (Singer, Songwriter: CD Trail's End available at Talia's gig.) The other day i was writing a song and my "Bird" was in the other room... so i grabbed the ***** capo that was sitting on my friend's piano- I used to be quite happy with the ***** capo, but after trying the "Bird of Paradise" , I can't go back to any others. The **** works pretty well, but nothing compares to the sensitivity and fit of the "Bird".

Eugene Ruffalo (New York songrwiter, singer, recording artist) "I LOVE your Bird of Paradise capo. I use a capo a lot when playing - as a matter of fact nearly all my songs are written in positions that require a capo, and I've probably tried every capo on the market...it's truly amazing how your capo moves from position to position without affecting the tuning - I've never seen any other do the same. And I believe it produces better tone from the guitar as well."

Tom Spaulding Nashville guitarist: "Gear?...Bird of Paradise capo from Digital Revolution, because they are the finest available!!"  

Steve Noonan (Elektra artist, composer, Buy For Me the Rain): I love it because I don't have to waste time retuning between songs.

Frederick Noad (Solo Guitar Playing, PBS Guitar Series) : "I love the Bird - fast to snap on and a firm grip that will not damage the finish of my finest guitars. It really works well."

Jason Vieaux (prizewinner 1996 Naumburg International Guitar Competition in New York, guitar faculty of The Cleveland Institute of Music.) "My Bird of Paradise is the only capo I use."

Jens Wagner (Duo Sonare): "The Birds are great and work perfectly. In our new program with pieces by Giuliani we use a capo and from now on it will be the Bird of Paradise!" Thomas Offermann: "I just love it"

Bruce Gatewood (New York guitarist)"The Bird looks so cool and works so good. The guitar stays in great tune!! The bird resonates like no other !!! This provides a sweet, warm tone. And it is a great conversation piece !!!!! "

Bob Prong "I've found the bird is always in tune, easy enough to use with one hand, and even enables you to capo just a couple of strings at a time, thus presenting some new tuning possiblities if you feel like getting really creative. If you use a capo, the bird will surely help your performance take off more smoothly and soar to new heights."

Anthony Sandi, (Nashville guitarist) I am an avid fan of this capo, as practically never playing in standard tuning makes it a must for me to have a capo, and the Bird is it. Not only does it keep in tune, but the just right pressure on the strings just does something to the feel of the strings that actually makes my playing smoother. I'd seem to fight other capos and the feel I got with them. I have a Bird for one of my acoustics and a Blackbird for the other. I've found that by keeping one capo exclusively for one guitar, the Bird actually becomes cozy on the fretboard and gets even better. I have been giving some out as Christmas gifts and one day hope to own a cool Bird Of Paradise T-shirt! :-)
