G7th is a British capo manufacturer founded in 2004 by design engineer Nick Campling and based in Peterborough, United Kingdom. The company was launched around the original Performance Capo, which introduced a patented wrap-spring clutch mechanism that allowed players to squeeze the capo into place with a single hand and adjust tension without re-tuning. The design earned multiple industry awards and a Queen's Award for Enterprise in 2009.

The product range covers 6-string, 12-string, and classical guitars as well as banjo, mandolin, and ukulele, with partial capos also in the lineup. Well-known models include the Performance 3 with Adaptive Radius Technology, the Performance 2, the yoke-style Heritage, the screw-tensioned Nashville, the spring-clamp Newport, and the UltraLight. The Performance 3 received a European Product Design Award in 2019.

G7th capos have been associated with a range of acoustic and electric players, including Richard Thompson, Bryan Adams, KT Tunstall, Roger McGuinn, Marcus Mumford, The Kooks, and Catfish and the Bottlemen, and the brand maintains an active artist relations program profiling players on its website.

G7th has 12 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Capos. Their gear is featured by 24 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Folk, World, & Country, and Pop. Notable users include James Bay, Grant Nicholas, and Ace.
