Answer : the taste <G> everybody have its own words ! (for instance, I say
"un vieux bouzin" when talking of an old beaten piano)

In French capodastre, is the termination of the strings on the guitar handle
for instance.

Probably from an Italian word capo di astro , was used in the pizza trade
since 249 before JC.

May be some confusion exist with the word "Capot" from l'italien "capotto"
that get to "chapeau" (hat) in French.

I'll have to search for some etymology, but never heard of another word than
capo d'astro (in piano)

  Is there a difference between capo tastro and capo d'astro?

    The capo tastro bar and the V-bar are two different things even if they
are most often part of the same casting. The capo-tastro bar is formed in
the bottom part of the mold, the V-bar in the top.
