## Overview

The Shubb C2B Guitar Capo is a precision-engineered brass capo designed specifically for nylon-string guitars with flat fretboards. Featuring a patented quick-lock lever and adjustable tension screw, it offers fast, secure placement without causing tuning issues. Its soft rubber clamp mimics fingertip pressure to prevent string buzzing and fret wear, making it a favorite among professional and amateur guitarists alike.

## Description

Model 2, "For nylon string guitar," for any guitar with a perfectly flat fretboard, 2.25 inches wide, flat. Precisely machined of brass and carefully hand assembled, a Shubb capo is manufactured without compromise. Simply holding one in your hand conveys a sense of quality. Snapping it solidly onto a guitar neck, and then removing it, all within about one second, will confirm its reputation for excellence. 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!

Review: Best capo I've found! - My husband and I both play guitar in a band, so we use capos a lot. And of the various styles I've tried, these are my favorite. Why? 1) they are smaller than many of the other clamp-on capos yet have a very solid feel to them; 2) there are basically no sharp edges to potentially nick the guitar (although I did slightly "ding" one of my guitars from dropping it on the face of the guitar...ouch!); 3) there's no tight spring-loaded action to potentially pop out of your hand. Instead they clamp on real smoothly, gently and evenly with very little strength needed. But the best feature by far is; 4) the adjustable tension mechanism. Since guitar necks gets wider and thicker as it gets closer to the body of the guitar, many capos get "uncomfortably" tight and more difficult, or even impossible, to clamp-on as you move it up the neck toward the body. With this capo, however, a slight turn of the screw will increase or decrease the tension as needed so the fit is always just right anywhere on the neck. I like to adjust it so the pressure on the strings is the minimum necessary to eliminate buzzing...similar to the pressure you would typically apply with your fingers (not something you can usually do with other clamp-on capos) as something tells me it's probably easier on your strings and frets. The only drawback, as others have mentioned, is that it is a lot more difficult to put on with one hand than some of the other clamp-on capos. You really need two hands to get the placement just right. It may also take some trial and error to get the tension adjusted or re-adjusted to where you want it, which could present a slight hindrance during a live performance. But I try to find a happy-medium so I don't need to re-adjust it very much as I reposition it. For me, though, the benefits out weigh the drawbacks. So much so that I've purchased five so far, for our various styles of guitars, including a "cute" little one that works with both my banjo and mandolin. Oh, one caution...make sure you get the right capo for your style guitar because the one for nylon-string guitars has a wider and flat rubber clamp, whereas the one for steel string guitars is a tad shorter and ever so slightly curved for "radius" necks. On day recently, my nylon stringed guitar was buzzing badly during practice and I was getting concerned...until I noticed I was using the slightly curved-steel-string capo on my flat-necked nylon-string guitar, so it wasn't pressing the center strings down hard enough. In retrospect, I might have bought the different styles in different colors of metal (they are available in brass and black etc.) so I could more easily tell them apart.
Review: Great product - I have been using another capo which is also very popular on desertcart and is less than half the price of this product, and I think is ok. I was practicing the song Girl by the Beatles which puts capo on the 8th fret. I found it very hard to work around the capo switching from E minor chord shape to B7 shape due to the size of the capo, so I ordred this one. I should say this capo is more discreet in size, and also more effective in functionality, so the issue I had is completely gone. I can also use this one on both my classical as well as steel string guitars, whereas my old capo is not suitable for classical guitar. Overall highly recommended.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful product.
*by A***R on April 4, 2017*

Very rigid and sturdy. Manufactured with quality in mind. Some people have complained about not being able to move it with one hand. I don't not find this difficult. Fits nicely on my Takamine classical guitar. Adjusting the set screw with the tension nob is very easy and moves slowly and steadily. If I am not plugged into my amps, I sometimes use the GuitarTuna app to tune and to use the metronome. I can tune my guitar to standard and have it within 1%-3% of each strings "ratio". Put the capo on and adjust my tension properly and the tuning stays within 5% total deviation of "standard" tuning. This of course depends on the guitars humidity and other factors, but overall, the Shubb C2 Capo for nylons is a wonderful product and well worth the few dollars it costs. I imagine this capo will last just as long, if not longer than the guitar I am using right now.
