Shubb C1

I play guitar for 17 years. Ιn those years, I used many capos. Some were good and others were horrible. Shubb C1 is without a doubt the best capo I used so far. I'm not claiming that this is the best capo there is because that would mean that I tried every capo available. I'm pretty sure though that it's one of the best. It may be a little more expensive that other capos, but it's not super expensive. The fact that it does the job so well completely justifies the cost. Even though that it's advertised as a steel strings guitar capo, it even works great on my classical guitar.

Pros:
- Excellent fit with all of my guitars(one acoustic, one electric and one classical guitar)
- Small size compared to other capos I used in the past
- Adjustable tension
- Solid construction
- Good rubber protection for the neck

Cons:
- Nothing so far to be honest. If I had to be picky, I would prefer a black color option.

To sum up, Shubb C1 is a solid capo and I would definitely recommend it to anyone in need of a capo. I would buy it again if I had to.

Seems like a really cool capo. For the past few years I've utterly destroyed few G7 Nashville-type capos so this mechanism looks like a real improvement as you don't have to rely on a spring which can wear off in time. Tension is regulated as well so putting it on 2nd fret on Telecaster will work same if you put it on 9th fret on a baseball bat. The only downside is that the rubber sleeve doesn't look so robust as G7. I've never got to replace them on these. On the other hand this one is getting some string marks pretty fast. You can get sleeve replacement for a few bucks but I'd rather like not have to worry about it. Although the it's small and cute it is pretty tough and I wouldn't worry dropping it on a hard floor.

​I am extremely satisfied with the Shubb C1. It is a very steady and reliable capo.
​What I love most is that it doesn't press the strings down too hard, which completely prevents buzz or unwanted fret noise and keeps the guitar perfectly in tune. On top of that, it’s super simple and intuitive to use.
​It works so well that I’ve actually bought a second one already. Highly recommended!
