Strum Hollow 5th String Banjo Capo

$14.95 $15.95 You Save 6% ($1.00)

This handy little capo is a perfect companion for any banjoist. It can easily be put on and taken off of the 5th string with no drilling or altering of your banjo. It minimizes string sharpness, and can be used instead of, or in addition to spikes when you need to play in a key where spikes are not present on your banjo. When not in use it can be stored on the non-playing area of a string behind the nut. Some pickers also like it because it doesn't lower the height of the fifth string, thus making it easier to hit with the thumb.

It works.

It works as presented. Well made. I also bought a very different design from Etsy, which amounts to a little plastic wedge. I was surprised that the plastic wedge resulted in a brighter sound than the Strum Hollow. So I will be using the little wedge instead of the Strum Hollow.

Won't hold still

I bought one years ago. Pulled it out my stash of accessories a few days ago because I couldn't get a new fifth string up to G. Was told it to give the string a few days to stretch, so I got it up to an E and installed this capo. Sounded a perfect G when plucked but the capo flopped all around when I tried to actually play anything. I'll still keep it in the gig bag for emergencies, but trying to figure out a way to anchor it without glue in the meantime.

Works well for steel strings - I wish there was a low tension/nylon string option.

This product works as advertised for high tension standard tuning, but can bounce around and fall down towards the second string when down-tuned/using nylon strings.
