It could be a matter of how people apply the capo. I love my G7. I think someone mentioned that they press the capo sting pad onto the strings, then squeeze the back in to keep it in place. This is how I affix the capo. With the capo wide open, I get it into position, "barre" the strings with the capo, then squeeze the back to hold the capo in the position I set it in. Maybe I've gotten used to it, but by pressing it straight down like I'm barring a chord, I have no intonation issues, no buzzing and it's a good, solid contact every time, on every guitar I own, electric or acoustic. Taught my 17-year old daughter the same technique, no problem on her GS-Mini or her Reverend Guitar. Though on the 12-string she prefers her Kyser.

Capos seem like simple devices, but they aren't really that simple. There are a few important factors that affect their performance, and the manufacturers seem to ignore those and market a bunch of stuff that nobody needs/wants.
