I reached out to these folks a while back : https://www.thaliacapos.com/

I was interested in getting some "blanks" and fitting them with side wood cut offs. IIRC, they didn't have an option to deliver the capo and allow someone to put their own inlay. To be honest, I'm not even sure how I would have done it . :)

That being said, they have a large selection and you can probably find one that matches your back and sides already. I have no experience with the quality of their capo's though. :)

In a pinch you can use it to repair your muffler......

TBH, the only capo I ever made myself was this, long time ago.

I used to have one almost just like that. Mine was the budget model with brown rubber bands.

Nice! I could never afford those fancy signature models.
