Shubb's new lightweight capo is less than 1/2 the weight of the original Shubb. Made from aerospace quality aluminium & nickel it weighs less than 1 ounce! It is a LIGHTWEIGHT capo! Some people associate a certain amount of heft with quality, and sustain and feel that it is necessary to properly do the job. But for years Shubb has been aware of another school of thought, and people who have been removing mass from their Shubb capos in an attempt to reduce their weight. It's a matter of opinion and of choice; neither side is right or wrong. If you feel that a lighter weight capo is to your liking, and that of your guitar, then the new Shubb Lite is the capo for you! • MFSKU L1 • UPC 700682500019
