You can check out the video below, which also includes a lesson on the Fox & the Red Hares song “Restless Soul”, which is available on our debut album. They aren’t planning to make this a major model, just fulfilling some requests from the players that use this style of capo exclusively (i.e. It’s quickly becoming my favorite capo, and I’ve been using the classic Shubb model for almost 20 years.ĭefinitely worth a try if you’ve got the cash and can find one. Now I can just leave it on the guitar all the time. When he’s done with the capo, he just sets it on the couch or something and then it’s missing for a couple days. I live with my brother, and he often borrows my guitar and a capo. I also like that I can store it above the but when not in use. There are numbers engraved into the 6 sides of the screw, which make for a convenient reference when tightening (I now know that I need it set to a 3 when I’m on the 4th fret, for example) The whole thing closes very securely with a jewellers clasp. The adjustment screw is large and has soft round edges as well. I find it less obtrusive than any other capo I’ve ever used, although this is the first stirrup style capo I’ve tried. It’s all solid stainless steel, with a large rubber pad on the main brace and two smaller ones on the side to prevent the metal from banging against the sides of the neck. The frame has nice, rounded edges and a very slim profile. But it has a few upgrades to that design that really set it above the rest (like the McKinney Elliott, which retails for an absurd $135US) It’s an old-fashioned “stirrup style” capo, like those popular with bluegrass players. Unless you are specifically seeking more padding and a softer feel when closing, we suggest that you use the replacement sleeve that is made for the FineTune capo.I was at NAMM this past weekend and picked up on of Shubb’s new F1 models. Replacement sleeves: our FineTune capos use a different sleeve than our other capos While one of our standard replacement sleeves CAN be used on a FineTune capo, it is thicker-walled, and will slightly alter the closing action of the capo. It is available only at a few select retail stores and websites, and directly from us here online. The FineTune Capo is not available through our conventional wholesale distribution network.
Being screw-operated, it can remain on the guitar (behind the nut) when not in use a popular feature with bluegrass players. Improved jeweler’s style latch prevents accidental opening. The FineTune is mechanically different from all our other capos.
Rubber bumpers and smoothly rounded edges protect the instrument.Specially developed rubber padding adds resilience to the capo’s closing action for finer control, and being absolutely inert, it will not mark an instrument.Greater contact area between screw, frame, and knob ensures that the fit will never become loose and sloppy.The knob’s six surfaces are numbered, providing a visual reference to more easily and accurately reproduce your ideal pressure.The knob maintains a fixed relationship with the frame, for improved ease of use, and for the lowest profile when stored behind the nut.Its innovative adjusting knob makes it the most ergonomic screw-operated capo.It represents the highest quality of craftsmanship and materials, and offers a few unique features not seen before. For these players, we have now designed the Shubb Fine Tune Capo. We have also been aware of some players who will always prefer a U-shaped, screw operated capo that can be stored behind the nut while not in use. Many of the top players will use nothing but a Shubb. Boy Howdy, what a good looking piece This is the quality you would expect from a capo that is twice as expensive Its innovative adjusting knob makes it. Its action most closely resembles that of the human hand, and we are confident that it is the most accurate capo in the world. We’ve been making guitar capos for nearly forty years, utilizing our patented over-center locking principle.
