Trace Bundy on using multiple capos
"Love Song" is in DADGAD, & I use three different capos. I put a Drop D capo at the 5th fret. Next I place a full capo at the 4th fret. Finally I put the silver four-spring capo on the head stock within easy reach ... the capos facilitate the descending & ascending bass line of the song (Guitar Player August 2014)
