The Shubb C1N is a straightforward, well-built capo designed specifically for acoustic and electric steel-string guitars. If you've ever had to stop and retune after slapping on a capo, you'll appreciate what Shubb has engineered here — a soft rubber pad that cushions the strings the way a fingertip does, and a closing action that doesn't pull them off center. The result is a capo you can move between frets mid-set without reaching for your tuner.
The C1N is built from nickel-plated brass and features a patented over-center locking mechanism: one flip of the lever locks it in place, another flips it right back off. A roller wheel gives the action a smooth, low-friction feel while reducing wear over time. The contoured lever and rounded ends — design details borrowed from Shubb's Deluxe line — make it comfortable to operate. The brushed nickel finish has a more subtle, satin-like look compared to the standard polished version, and fits most steel-string fretboard radii thanks to a proprietary sleeve material engineered to conform to the fretboard's shape.
