Why?
- Shubb Capos are engineered to duplicate the same actions and pressure that your fingers would apply to fret note(s) or
barre
across the strings. - Shubb Capos are a one time adjustment. And, allows you to set it to apply just the right amount of pressure as to not require ANY re-tuning.
For my personal ukuleles I use the Lite Ukulele Capo L9 for my Ko'olau CS Tenors. Shubb Capos are are available from Funky Frets Music Store .
- Ukulele Capo L9 Less than half the weight of other Shubb capos, L9 is an excellent match for almost all ukuleles. Available in multiple colors for flat and radius fingerboards.
