Product Overview
The Shubb Fifth String Banjo Capo was the gadget that got it all started for us back in 1974, and to this day it's STILL the only fifth string capo worth putting on a banjo. It operates on a lever principle, not a spring, so it provides sufficient pressure to fret the string without muting the tone. It slides on a slim, dovetailed bar which mounts flush to the neck, making it sturdy and unobtrusive. The Shubb FSLB Fifth String Long Bar Banjo Capo is the original 8" long bar capo. It attaches to the banjo with three mounting screws. The long bar design allows the 5th string to be capoed up to the 13th fret for limitless key possibilities.
