Bob, do a little search here and you'll find out more about capos than anyone really needs to know, but that doesn't stop us capo nerds from flogging the subject.I prefer the Shubb for everyday use, but I have Dunlop Triggers and Kysers cut down and filed for virtual tunings. I also very much like Paige and Golden Gate horshoe shaped capos (they are alot like the McKinney and Elliot capos popular with the bluegrass folks) because they'll slip up over the nut and out of the way, and they adjust well (though they need better rubber).
My first capo was one of those elastic ones. I'm glad they weren't the height of technology.
Peace, Mooh.
