The problem I've seen with Kysers is that they often pull the strings to the side (especially when you're moving them around placing them very quickly) and sharpen the intonation of your guitar. If you don't care about this, you should consider just buying another Kyser. If you do care, you have the Shubb, which presses the string vertically but is not as easy to move around.

I've found that a good balance between the two is this guy (Planet Waves).

Sometimes they are different, because the radius/width of the neck can vary from electric to acoustic. But most steel string capos work on both electric and acoustic.

I prefer the non-spring-loaded ones like thism, and I can vouch it works well for acoustic and electric:

I have a keyser that I’m not a huge fan of just because it doesn’t like to sit well on the neck (I have an Eastman, not a Gibby, though).

My go-to is my trusty old Shubb. Have had it for probably 12 years and it’s still going strong.

this is the one I use.
