Customers say

Customers like the performance, quality and appearance of the capo. For example, they mention it works brilliantly, is well built and looks like a piece of jewelry. That said, some complain about the fit. They say it doesn't fit onto Gretsch Dobros and that it only fits onto the first couple frets. Opinions are mixed on ease of use.

Customers are mixed about the ease of use. Some mention it's easy to use, while others say it'll be a little more finicky than they like. They say it takes much too long to operate.

5 customers mention0 positive5 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the fit of the capo. They mention that it doesn't fit onto Gretsch Dobros, Boxcar Dobro, or the Gold Tone at all. The solid brass bar did not fit under the guitar strings without turning. They also say that it has to be continually adjusted for each fret and that it's too thick for the cap to fit over.

"...That means that you have to make a pretty large adjustment in the thumb screw when moving it a distance of several frets." Read more

"...You can barely fit the capo on at the 2nd fret of the Boxcar Dobro. Don't buy this capo if you have a Gretsch or Gold Tone squareneck Dobro...." Read more

"...Lots of rattling and difficulty getting it adjusted right and trying to keep it there. In the end I couldn't get a clean sound with it...." Read more

"...It is slow to put on, has to be continually adjusted for each fret and often does not clamp down on all the strings...." Read more

4 customers mention0 positive4 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the sound quality of the capo. They mention that it has a lot of rattling and is really noisy. Some customers also say that the gauge ones tend to buzz a bit.

"...I also bought a Shubb bar that is really noisy. My cheapo Steven's bar doesn't have that problem. I will never buy a Shubb product again." Read more

"This capo really doesn’t do what it is intended to do. Continued buzzing and unclean tone when used...." Read more

"...as effectively clamped as the heavier gauge ones, and as such, tend to buzz a bit...." Read more

"...Lots of rattling and difficulty getting it adjusted right and trying to keep it there. In the end I couldn't get a clean sound with it...." Read more

4 customers mention0 positive4 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the tone quality of the capo. They mention that it has a poor design and produces major tone loss. Customers also report that the strings are muted and muffled when using it.

"...n't matter as the rubber top piece causes the strings to be muted and muffled. Really a disgrace to the Shubb name...." Read more

"...Continued buzzing and unclean tone when used. Bought another product, and it was light years better." Read more

"...In the end I couldn't get a clean sound with it. I opted to get a style that clamps to just the strings and that is the design to go with." Read more

4 customers mention0 positive4 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the value of the capo. They mention that it's the worst product they have ever purchased, a total waste of money, and horrible on the dobro.

"...quick ... the concept seems sound (no pun intended) but actual use proves problematic ... I know some folks who like these, but I cannot join them..." Read more

"...Unfortunately this was a total waste of money for me. Instead buy the Beard wave capo, it's fast and works very well!" Read more

"...There is no way it could possibly work. It is the biggest piece of engineering garbage I have ever seen. Who designed this thing?..." Read more

"...It was horrible on the dobro, but has been a great paper weight. I bought a Scheerhorn Reso-Guitar capo and it is MUCH better...." Read more
