What makes the Shubb capo so special? For one thing, its ingenious design: a patented locking action which provides an unrivalled 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 doesn't create 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!
Rick Shubb and Dave Coontz formed a partnership on a handshake in 1974 based on a solid premise: no compromises. We would make unique products to the highest standard of quality.
When we introduced our guitar capo in 1980, we adhered to that policy. The Shubb capo cost twice as much as any other capo then on the market, yet players recognized its quality, and it quickly became the capo of choice for discerning players everywhere.
