Less than half the weight of other Shubb capos, the L1 is best suited for a steel string guitar with relatively low action and light to medium strings. For higher tension setups one of our other model 1 capos, brass or stainless, would be a better choice.

The Shubb Lite is made of aluminum. It weighs less than 28 grams (one ounce). 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.

Neither opinion is right or wrong; it’s a matter of choice. If a lighter weight capo is to your liking, and that of your instrument, then the Shubb Lite is definitely the capo for you!
