I have a vintage ODE 5-string banjo (circa 1964) which came with a 5th string Capo. The Capo is zinc plated and is fastened to the neck with two screws, one just below the 5th string peg and one at about the 10th fret. The slider moves up and down on the wavy shape of the bar with the waves corresponding to the frets. At the high point of the bar the slider is pressing down just below the fret. Unfortunately I have lost the sliding part. I think the capo is an ODE adaptation of a Pittman design. Any luck? Or Suggestions where to find a replacement slider or an entire capo replacement?
