Could need the truss rod backed off. When I got my LL16M A.R.E. the truss rod was such that the neck was flat with no relief. I had to apply some back bow to the neck by turning the truss rod adjustment nut anti clockwise a bit.
Another possibility is that your capo's radius profile doesn't match the profile of the Yamaha fretboard.
Or you could have a fret or two that need leveled.
But my money is on the neck relief.
