Shubb F5G Fine Tune Banjo Capo – Gold
The Shubb F5G Fine Tune Capo is a premium screw-operated capo designed specifically for banjo players who want precise tension control and convenient, reliable performance. It covers four strings and, on a standard 5-string banjo, can be used up to the 4th fret—no higher.
The screw-operated Fine Tune design allows the capo to remain attached to the instrument when not in use, making it especially popular with bluegrass players who need quick access during performances.
Precision Fine-Tune Design
Shubb has been making high-quality capos for decades, and the Fine Tune series brings that same attention to precision, craftsmanship, and instrument protection to a traditional U-shaped, screw-operated design.
The innovative adjustment knob provides smooth, controlled tension while maintaining a fixed relationship with the capo frame. This makes the capo comfortable to adjust while allowing it to sit neatly behind the nut when not in use.
The knob features six numbered surfaces, providing a visual reference that makes it easier to reproduce your preferred pressure setting.
A carefully engineered connection between the screw, frame, and knob provides a secure, stable fit and helps prevent unwanted looseness.
Instrument-Friendly Construction
Specially developed rubber padding adds controlled resilience to the capo's closing action, allowing for finer adjustment while helping protect the instrument's finish.
Rubber bumpers and smoothly rounded edges provide additional protection, while the improved jeweler-style latch helps prevent accidental opening.
The capo is carefully machined to close thread tolerances for smooth and dependable operation.
