It is Huge!

Dunlop Trigger for scale.

Look how tiny The Shubbs are beside it!
This is a take on the Dunlop Axial Spring design.

what? you want me to try it too?

Actually . no it doesn't not in E or G anyways.

It is certainly big enough to handle the round neck resonator guitar . But can not test that right now, since it's in lap slide configuration.

It is also long enough for 12 string, I capoed at 7th fret. Just needed a tiny bit of wiggle to lock down 1st course.

Surprise, It all cast metal, and not a plastic covering over a metal capo, as I expected. I hope it isn't pewter or 'white' metal.

and LOL The top pad is shaped like a tongue; narrow at tip, wide at back of throat.
