I bought this for use on my path towards multi-instrument mastery. (Flute, guitar, bluegrass banjo, etc.)The target instrument was my banjo, and I figured that it would work out well for both guitar & banjo.Turns out that if you turn the capo upside down, so that the "trigger" is pointed up, that it fits the banjo neck & frets just the first four strings instead of all five.Now all I need to do is either install rail road spikes for the 5th string or make my own 5th string capo.
