I had read a number of reviews of this product and watched their (quite poor) videos and was always put off by the price. Yet to pay someone to fix a capo permanently or to insert railroad spikes would likely have cost the same amount (not to mention travel expenses when I eventually found such a person). So I had two choices, buy this and hope, or keep re-tuning the fifth string.I received the item only two working days after placing the order and I thought that was impressive, especially since I used the standard free postage rather than pay for a faster service. Nicely and safely packaged, this capo is tiny and very light. Definitely not something you can leave lying around anywhere, far too easy to get lost. Fitting it was so simple I was amazed. In use the light weight of the product is perfect because it does not alter the balance of the neck (and a banjo is awkward enough to hold at the best of times). Taking it off, well, that's another story and I expect using it more and more I will soon get used to it.I will agree with other comments that have been left. This is not a capo for someone who needs speed of putting on or taking off, chances are only spikes will serve. And this is not a capo for someone who needs to change key mid-song or who has no time between songs to put it on and take it off. But this is definitely the capo for a banjo player who doesn't want to have anything screwed or hammered into the neck of his instrument, and who wants near-perfect pitch from his fifth string.With more use, I am certain I will be able to put it on and take it off much quicker, and since I always have clothes with pockets, it will be no bother to put it away safely between songs.Until manufacturers realise that a fifth string capo is not a luxury but is essential, we will always have to go to the additional expense - or else keep retuning the fifth string or even keep a banjo tuned to A (or other) rather than G. Until that day arrives, we will keep searching for the fifth string capo we can feel comfortable with.For the use I give a banjo, this capo really is perfect. It is expensive, far too expensive, but as another reviewer pointed out, the company clearly needs to recoup its production costs and so "early adopters" pay far more than they need. If they sold this at half the price, or less, there would still be profit and I expect far more would be sold (including to players with more than one banjo).In use, I can't fault it. Putting on and off, it can be a bit fiddly but as I've said, this will speed up with more use. Tuning, it stays in tune! And although it feels ultra light, that lack of weight is a bonus when it is fitted on the neck.I will recommend this, provided you don't want to change key mid-way through a song and you don't need to fit it/remove it ultra fast during songs in a set. But it is a damned good piece of kit and very useful. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars This is an EXCELLENT bit of kit *by K***F on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 April 2015* This is an EXCELLENT bit of kit. O.K. yes it is rather expensive, but there is no real competition for it and it works really well. I can't understand some of the reviews who found it difficult to fit and take off. There are 2 very clear pictures on the packaging showing how to install and remove, and if you follow those it is EASY. Really pleased with the purchase. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent product *by A***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 June 2020* A quality product that is easy to use, was delivered (internationally!) super quick and sounds fantastic. I actually had another 5th string capo that I had got from another shop and it is ok but quite fiddly to use and expensive. This capo is far far better. I love it. ## Frequently Bought Together - Banjo Highway Fifth String Banjo Capo - Bronze - D'Addario Banjo Strings (XTJ1023) - Ernie Ball Earthwood 5-String Frailing 80/20 Bronze Banjo Strings, 10-24 Gauge (P02061) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/97669956-fifth-string-banjo-capo-bronze](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/97669956-fifth-string-banjo-capo-bronze) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
