I've seen several 5th string capos, but not one like that. Looks like it might work?

Yes it works but this one too loose they fall on the 5th string .
I just bought a old custom made long neck and it is on it . Ill put stakes on it .
I really like the number of chord options . I play LN when I can and play the whole
neck , but being stuck in this wheelchair, I wont play it unless I have plenty of room around me.
I got this to use in my work shop . Don't want to take me good banjos out there. I picked
up one of the cheep gold tone LN , love the neck, but fiber rim makes it play too bright, not warm
like a wood rim. This one has a home made metal rim , when I get the tuners replaced I will let you know
how it sounds. This is a $200. banjo , and if it don't sound the way I want , when i get it done Some one will get a cheep LN banjo.
