Fretlocks single-string capos allow guitarists to play "impossible music"
Guitar accessory promises new levels of creativity

If you've ever felt the need for an extra finger or two on your fretboard, new single-string capos Fretlocks could be the accessory you've been waiting for.
Fretlocks simply stick onto your fretboard and two tiny blades 'fret' the string - there are three different sizes of Fretlock dependent on string gauge.
This offers up opportunities for new chord shapes and licks that would previously be impossible - Fretlocks' founders are encouraging players to join their 'Freternity' to share how they use the accessory.
Fretlocks are available from late September via the Fretlocks site for £15 per pack of six and £25 for a limited-edition tin of 12.
