Hi all - I have a bouzouki tuned GDAE; I went to capo it at the 5th fret to create a mandola tuning.
But when I tried I found the strings lay too close to the neck and buzzed, I think because the neck is bowed down slightly.
Is there a a certain type of capo , maybe with an extra bar, that might set the strings like 0.5 mm higher to avoid this issue ? Tucking a nail under the strings at the 5th fret might work but doesn’t seem in the right spirit.
