- Capo | Bluegrassbasics
Capo: What is it and how does it work? Comes from the Italian word for "head". When used on fretted instruments, it changes the "head" of the string from the nut to whatever fret it is placed behind. This enables you to play in various keys while using chords you're accustomed to using when playing a particular song. In practice: a song may say "Key of A" and "Capo 2". This means you'll place the capo behind the 2nd fret and play the chords that are listed. In this case, they would likely be G, C, and D. Although your fingers are playing in the key of G, the use of the capo makes it sound like the key of A. Things to consider when purchasing a capo: Adjustable tension - You only want as much pressure as is needed to make all of your strings ring clearly. Too much can pull your strings out of tune. Matched fretboard radius - Depending on the instrument, your frets might be completely flat, or may have a significant curve to them. You want a capo that matches the radius of your frets. Storage - Where do you keep it when you're not using it? Some can stay on the instrument while others will need to be completely removed. Cost - They range from a few dollars to many, many dollars.

- Banjolele/Ukulele | Bluegrassbasics
Banjolele/Ukulele Ukuleles are not part of the typical bluegrass ensemble. Due to a renewed popularity in the United States, they are becoming more common at bluegrass jams. A major hurdle for ukes is the ability to be heard in such a large group. The combination of the small size and nylon strings makes projecting the sound quite a challenge. One solution to this is playing a banjolele. It is the same size and tuning as a ukulele but being built on a banjo body means that it is typically louder and projects better than a traditional ukulele. If a banjolele isn't an option, then using larger ukulele sizes like tenor- or concert-sized ukuleles could be helpful. Left - Stella Banjolele - This banjolele was built in the heyday of banjo ukes in the 1920s. It has been upgraded with Ratio Tune-A-Lele Ukulele Tuners . The original "friction" tuners did not hold the tension of the strings very well. These upgraded tuners are "geared" but have a very small footprint. Right - Harmony Baritone Ukulele - Baritone ukuleles are tuned like the top 4 strings of a guitar - DGBE. This one has been upgraded with Grover geared ukulele tuners .
