I first used a capo like this on an older banjo of my uncles while I was first learning to play. I loved it then and I love it now. I installed it myself using the included instructions with no problems. It is quick and convienent to use.

I was leery of having even little screw holes drilled into the neck of my banjo, but I bit the bullet and had it done because I wanted to give this capo a try. A professional luthier did the installation. I'm really quite happy with the result. This capo operates on a different principle than spikes and you can adjust the pressure downward on the string so it doesn't go as easily out of tune as sometimes happens with spikes. Keep an open mind!
