Kiss Your Old Capo Goodbye

The Shubb S5 Deluxe capo is designed with your banjo in mind. Made from stainless steel, this capo is extremely tough and will last for years before it's time to replace it. Shubb capos mimic the way your fingers fret the strings and ensure that you stay in tune by eliminating the string stretching and pulling that is so common in lesser capos. Shubb's patented over-center locking mechanism and adjustable tension screw allow the capo to easily re-create the same tension and feel every time. Here at Sweetwater, we know that trying new capos is a daunting task, but once you try a Shubb capo, you'll understand. The Shubb S5 Deluxe capo is designed to fit most banjos.

Designed to be different

Solving a decades-old design flaw isn't easy, but that's exactly what the Shubb Deluxe capo does. This Shubb capo tackles intonation issues with its specially formulated rubber pads that mimic the feel of your finger. The rubber is soft enough to let your strings move and resonate without fretting too hard and stretching them out of tune. This eliminates the need to retune your guitar after you apply a capo. All you need to do is close the lever and experience the hassle-free installation, intonation, and incredible playing feel that Shubb capos are known for. Designed to be different, the Shubb Deluxe capo provides a noticeable intonation improvement in a modest package.

Shubb S5 Deluxe Capo Features:

  • Closing design acts like your hand and doesn't pull your strings off center
  • Custom formulated rubber pad mimics your finger to improve intonation
  • Solid stainless steel construction resists scratches, nicks, and dents
  • Adjustable tension screw eliminates the need for retuning after installing a capo
  • Over-center locking roller is smooth and easy to use
  • Low-profile design makes playing in the first position easy
  • Designed to fit most banjos
