Model Specifics
Model 1 capos - "for Steel String Guitar" - fit almost all steel string guitars, acoustic or electric. 2" wide and curved. These feature a unique over-center locking mechanism that provides an unrivalled combination of power, speed, accuracy and ease of use. One smooth flip of the lever locks it securely in place, and removes it just as quickly. Its soft, resilient rubber is specially designed to work just like a fingertip, so it doesn't bend the strings over the frets. And its closing action - just like your hand - won't pull the string off-centre.
Model 4 capos are 2" wide and more curved than our other capos. These are made specifically for vintage Fender Teles and Strats with 7.25" radius fretboards. Note that MOST Fenders do NOT have this more extreme radius, and should use a model 1 capo.

Model 5 capos are"for Banjo" - are 1.5" wide and also fit most mandolins and bouzoukis, many tenor guitars, and other instruments with narrow fretboards.
