A Capo with Rock-solid Intonation

The Shubb C1n Standard capo won't mess with your tuning or intonation, allowing for fast attachment between songs with no break in your musical flow. This capo’s patented over-center locking action ensures smooth operation and unrivaled ease of use. Its soft rubber pad works like a fingertip, while its closing action is engineered like your hand, so the capo doesn’t pull your guitar’s strings off center — no retuning necessary. Its innovative roller design ensures smooth action and reduced wear for long-term reliability. Small, stylish, and unobtrusive, the Shubb C1n Standard capo is tailor-made for acoustic and electric steel-string guitars.

Engineered to work like the human hand

Most capos mess with your intonation — you have to retune your instrument every time you attach one. That’s because fingerboards are made for fingers, not capos. But, thanks to Shubb, this is no longer a problem. Shubb capos employ a soft rubber pad that works like your fingertip. Consequently, they don’t forcefully bend your instrument’s strings over its frets. Likewise, the capo’s closing action is similar to that of your hand, so it doesn’t pull your strings off center. This eliminates the need to retune your instrument after installing the capo. What’s more, Shubb capos are a breeze to use — one flip of a lever locks it securely in place and removes it just as easily. Fast, easy installation and rock-solid intonation — what more could you ask for? Shubb capos have remained popular for nearly 40 years — many guitarists here at Sweetwater swear by them. Try one, and you’ll understand why.

Shubb's C1n model fits most steel-string acoustic and electric guitars.

Real capo

I had a capo that came with my guitar. The positioning of it in the fret had to be perfect or it would just deaden the strings. Lately it had gotten to where it didn't matter where you put it, you were going to have strings that were dead. It was never really much better than a toy. This Shubb capo is the real deal. Well made, adjustable and every string rings out. A good product at a fair price.
