    Shubb Deluxe Series GC-30 (S1) Acoustic Guitar Capo - Stainless Steel

    • the rest - Shubb is the best for correct string tension, placement in the fret area and resonance from the string while being played.
    • Low profile and good tension.
    • The adjustable tension is a great feature, and it’s super easy to use
    • My adjustable tension Planet Waves spring capo lasted a good couple of years, but now it's relegated to just my classical guitar because of tension loss
    • Smooth spring action and thumbscrew lets you dial in perfect tension
    • This capo is awesome because:- Presses straight down on the strings, giving each one equal pressure- Adjustable tension, so strings stay in tune (avoids over-squeezing)- High-quality construction; will last a lifetimeIt's absolutely the best
    • No constant adjusting, just an easy tension clip-on.
    • The adjustable tension is amazing
    • The adjustable tension is nice, in that one can set it to just enough tension to get a good sound w/o pulling the strings sharp (my Kyser quick-change capo was pulling all the strings noticeably sharp)4.
    • The tension is adjustable but honestly I have not noticed any noticeable change in sound quality over a Kaiser capo
    • Nice even tension across the fret.
    • The tension needs to be set properly before use (I made the mistake of setting the tension too weak on the capo, which made the high E not ring out correctly)5.
    • Although the capo is well built and works very well, there are others I like better like the Planet Waves NS and the G7 which both must be tightened each installation to the correct tension but are simple and easy to adjust
    • I love the adjustable tension which is so key to staying in tune.
    • the wheel seems like it will last a lot longer and gives a more secure connection and a more consistent tension
    • I will never again buy a non-adjustable tension capo, and I probably will never again buy a non-Shubb capo based on my experience so far with this
    • The adjustability helps apply the perfect tension and keeps the guitar in tune.
    • Adjustable tension.
    • adjustable tension allows me to fine tune my capo-ing
    • With this one you can adjust it exactly where it needs to be for the right tension
    • so it puts exactly enough but not too much tension on the strings, it stays there, and it's the most unobtrusive capo I've ever used.
    • I like the tension adjustable feature. very good for the price!
    • I especially like the adjustable tension
    • Works great every time with adjustable tension based on your guitar and tone needs
    • It's adjustable tension never throws you out of tune.
    • Still have a little trouble getting that low 'E' to ring no matter which capo I use.
    • The design of this capo required you to constantly fiddle with the tension in order to get it to fit correctly while never quite fretting the high E correctly
