| Shubb LIte capo, made of aluminium. Less than half the weight of other Shubb capos, L9 is an excellent match for almost all ukuleles. Shubb L9 Ukulele Capo The Shubb LiTE is made of aluminum, and weighs less than one ounce, making it a great choice for ukulele. Is a Lightweight capo for you? Maybe. Some people associate a certain amount of heft with quality, while many others feel that a capo should be as light as possible. But even if you are in the former camp, you are likely to find that the L9 LITE capo is an ideal match for the weight and feel of  your uke. However, if you still prefer the feel of a brass capo, then try our model C9b for ukulele. The L9 will fit almost all ukuleles, with the exception of a few baritones with deeper necks. For these, any of our model 5 (banjo) capos will be a good fit. Shubb  Capos   When the Shubb capo was first introduced more than 30 years ago guitarists throughout the world fell in love with it. They’re still in love with it today. We’ve given it a few tweaks through the years, but its basic mechanical principle remains the same: a unique over-center locking mechanism that provides an unrivaled combination of power, speed, accuracy and ease of use. One smooth flip of the lever locks it securely in place, and removes it just as quickly. And the Shubb capo is BY FAR the best at not creating tuning problems. Its soft, resilient rubber is specially designed to work just like a fingertip, so it doesn’t bend the strings over the frets. Its closing action is just like your hand, so it doesn’t pull the string off center. As a result, no re-tuning is necessary! Capos continue to come and go, but the fact remains for the guitarist who is serious about quality and intonation…nothing but a Shubb will do. (from Shubb product information) |
