The f5r innovative adjusting knob makes it the most ergonomic screw operated capo.  The knob maintains a fixed relationship with the frame, for improved ease of use, and for the lowest profile when stored behind the nut.  The knob’s six surfaces are numbered, providing a visual reference to more easily and accurately reproduce your ideal pressure.  Greater contact area between screw, frame, and knob ensures that the screw’s fit will never become loose and sloppy.  Silicone rubber neck pad adds resilience to the capo’s closing action for finer control, and being absolutely inert, it will not mark an instrument.  Rubber bumpers and smoothly rounded edges protect the instrument.  Compact, jeweler’s style latch prevents accidental opening.  Carefully machined to the closest thread tolerance.  Highly polished stainless steel with attractive abalone inlay.  for banjos with radiused fretboards.
