REPLACEMENT PARTS for Shubb capos
A Shubb Capo is made to last a lifetime. But with long and hard use the rubber or plastic parts can begin to show some wear, and eventually effect the proper functioning of your capo. But you don't throw away a Mercedes when it needs new tires! Replacement sleeves and Delrin caps are available for our capos. We encourage stores to keep a supply on hand, but the word doesn't always get to them, or maybe some stores don't feel like bothering with them. But you can get them right here.
TweetPrices include postage within the USA, and are really only to cover postage.
Orders sent outside the USA will have additional postage added on our shopping cart.
For international customers, it is not practical for us to send a single sleeve or cap.
In Europe, closer sources for replacement sleeves and Delrin caps are Hobgoblin (UK) or Thomann (Germany)

If the pad has come loose from your capo, we can provide a replacement, along with instructions for gluing it on. Or if you prefer you can send us your capo and we will repair it for you at no charge. All it will cost you is the postage to get it to us. We suggest letting us do it, since getting a good bond can be tricky and we have had a lot of practice. For more information, see our service department.
