I know about using the capo to raise the pitch of the strings (so that it makes it possible to use "easier" chords). Does anyone have a chart so that the same chord can be SOUNDED even though a different chord shape is played at a different fret.
For example: player one plays A,D,E with no capo but player 2 plays D, G, A with the capo on fret 7. They both end up sounding the first chord. As you can imagine, this is used for harmonising the 2 guitars.

In non-musical way my girlfriend suggested that capo's might make good nipple tassles. However, my Shubb capo isn't quite up to the job (unsuitable mechanism) and i'd suggest that those spring loaded ones that you can move with one hand are better for this purpose.

It's used for changing the key of the chord. !st fret is the key of F
3rd fret key of G...etc
