The most basic type of capo consists of a rubber-coated bar to clamp the strings, and a rubber or elastic band that wraps around the neck to hold it securely. These are small and inexpensive, but require two hands to put on or move around the neck.
1 This may be due to a degeneration of the nerve cells which control smell, together with a loss of sensitivity in oneâs taste buds. 2  Men, regardless of age have a lower ability to distinguish between odors.  Smoking causes damage to the nasal membranes and reduces one's ability to identify odors.
Another mechanism of taste loss is damage to one or more of the neural pathways innervating the taste buds (e.g., subsequent to viral Bell's palsy or dental or surgical procedures). Rarely, central neural factors (e.g., tumor or epilepsy) result in loss of taste.
