Original Shubb capo, plain brass. A natural for anyone who favors a retro look.

A few years ago we upgraded the original nickel plated Shubb capo, giving it the roller design, and a more 
streamlined look and feel. But whenever you change something, some people will prefer the original. So for 
those who still want the “classic” — the original Shubb capo as it has been for over 40 years — we are continuing 
to make the ORIGINAL Shubb capo available in plain brass.

Plain, unplated brass will darken in time. For those of us who appreciate brass, we prefer this look; reminiscent 
of an old microscope, or a piece of gear from a sailing ship. But if you like your brass to shine, it can be polished 
with a cloth and most any commercial metal polish.

Since 1980 the Shubb capo has set the standard against which all others must be measured. It is the first choice 
often the only choice… of more than a million musicians worldwide. The serious guitarist will settle for no less.

SHUBB C7 Partial Capo D-Tune, Nickel

Shubb:In 1995 we introduced our partial capo, and it has been growing in popularity ever since.

It skips the outside string and covers the next three, either 2-3-4 or 5-4-3 (emulating DADGAD tuning) 

Our C7 and C7b partial capos skips the outside string and covers the next three. In the most common 
use this emulates DADGAD open tuning, while leaving the string tension unchanged, in traditional tuning. 
For years guitarists had been cutting up capos to accomplish this; then in 1995 we introduced this very 
special, partial capo to do the job.
