Shubb C5 Banjo/Mandolin Capo for Flat Fretboard

Look, Ma! One Hand!

After using a Paige capo for a couple years, I ordered the Shubb. While the Paige is compact, it does take two hands to put it on properly. While jamming one night I saw someone use a Shubb. He put it on with one hand! In a nutshell, the Shubb C-5 capo is darn good. The only drawback is it is larger than my Paige, so it will not fit into the little pocket I have on my banjo strap. It takes two hands to put my Paige there, too.

Great products and Great Service

As always, Jake and Banjo Ben's did what we all have come to expect...they came through with the best products and the turn around time was phenomenally quick. Thank you!

Good Capo

Easy to use. I use the radiused model on my other mandolin and bought the flat one for my new mandolin. They install quickly and are easy to determine correct pressure to adjust up the neck. The only negative to using these over the spring type is that they have to go into your pocket when not in use. Can't clip them on the head stock. I have been using them for about 15 years.
