Shubb F5 Fine Tune Banjo / Mandolin Guitar Capo

The Shubb FineTune Capo F5 is a screw-operated, U-shaped capo designed for banjos and mandolins. It operates differently than conventional capos—thanks to its screw mechanism, it can stay on the instrument even when not engaged, a feature beloved by bluegrass players.

Features & Benefits
