Temporary 12th fret single string uke capo - idea
Okay, I haven't tried this out yet as I need to get some of that elastic, non-sticky, green garden tape - the kind used to tie roses, etc. to espaliers. Right now I have two ukes here where I am and both have low G-strings and I want to try claw hammer uke techniques without having to change the low G-String. I can do that, of course, without having a high G-string but I was trying to figure out how to capo just the low G-string, That would be hard to do on either of my tenors as the 12th frets are close to the neck, where the wood is too thick to use a single string capo of any sort. So, I'm going to see if I can use garden tape to wrap around the 12th fret, probably having to start at the 10th fret. Will let you know how my experiment turns out.
