The
C1 is Shubb’s most popular model. It fits most steel string guitars, acoustic
or electric. It is crafted of brass, nickel plated, and polished to a mirror
finish.
When
the Shubb capo was first introduced about 40 years ago, guitarists throughout
the world fell in love with it. They’re still in love with it today. Shubb has
given it a few tweaks through the years, but its basic mechanical principle
remains the same: a unique over-center locking mechanism that provides an
unrivaled combination of power, speed, accuracy and ease of use. One smooth
flip of the lever locks it securely in place, and removes it just as quickly.
And
the Shubb capo is BY FAR the best at not creating tuning problems. Its soft,
resilient rubber is specially designed to work just like a fingertip, so it
doesn’t bend the strings over the frets. Its closing action is just like your
hand, so it doesn’t pull the string off center. As a result, no re-tuning is
necessary!
Capos
continue to come and go, but the fact remains for the guitarist who is serious about
quality and intonation…nothing but a Shubb will do.
