It's small and compact, its easy to use and modify, fits virtually any neck shape, and adjusts its tension in a precise way.

I highly recommend it - especially to beginners as it relieves a lot of the frustrations of barring the frets in a reliable, consistent way.

With my spring clamp capos, they are invariably pressed all the way down which leads to some slight tuning issues.. not a problem if I'm playing alone, but it's been and issue when recording or playing with others

right where you like it (though, honestly, the way these clamp, if the tension is off a bit, it still sounds great!).I'd say this is the most inexpensive 'decent for a pro musician' capo there is

Nice, very nice.......love the way you can micro adjust it

There is less chance of pulling strings out of tune because of the available adjustment and the way it clamps on ( more similar to the index finger)

The Fender is plastic and it works fine on my electrics but not as well as on my acoustic.

The Shubb will not get in the way of your hand and is, as they say, fully adjustable in tension

It works exactly as it is supposed to, with just the right amount of pressure on the strings.
