SHUBB S2 DLX CAPO Classical Nickel

S2 — for classical guitar. 2.25" wide, flat fretboard.
Crafted of solid stainless steel to resist nicks and scratches,
this capo will look just as beautiful years from now as it does today.
When the Shubb Capo was first introduced in 1980, capos were elevated
to a whole new level. In 1998 the Shubb Deluxe pushed the envelope again.
Many people thought that the original Shubb could not be improved, but with
the Deluxe we introduced upgrades in materials, design, geometry and ergonomics.
It became the flagship product of our line. Still made in our shop in Missouri
and assembled by our crew in California, as it always has been.

Roller mechanism
The roller mechanism equalizes the dropoff across the full range of the capo.
Because the roller head adjusts upward on an arc (as opposed to a straight line) it moves inward toward
the center curve of the middle piece of the capo as it is tightened - so it does not move further past
center when it is set tighter. This maintains a relationship between the moving parts that results in the same,
ideal amount of dropoff at any point within the capo's working range.
So you get the ideal amount of dropoff on a thin neck, on a thick neck, and all those in between...
and on different parts of the same neck.

Any capo can casually advertise that it "doesn't put the guitar out of tune," but we really mean it,
and we take it very seriously!
Of course, to even begin to address tuning issues, a capo must be totally adjustable.
This narrows the field a bit, but Shubb is not the only adjustable capo. So what makes a Shubb so special?
When we developed our capo, our main job was to minimize or eliminate the need for retuning.
We accomplished this by designing

1. a unique material that acts just like your fingertip

2. a patented closing action that works exactly like your hand

3. a one-time adjustment that provides the ideal pressure every time.

The Shubb Capo company began in California in 1974, when Dave Coontz and I collaborated to design and produce a new fifth string capo for banjo. Before that, I worked as a professional 5-string banjo player and teacher, and Dave was an auto mechanic and a banjo student of mine. One night at his lesson, I was talking about my dissatisfaction with existing methods of capoing the fifth string. I described an idea that I had for a fifth string capo that operated on a lever principle, so that it would provide sufficient pressure for a good tone, and ranted about how I couldn’t get anyone in the music products trade interested in making one. Finally, he said “if nobody else will make you one, I will.”
