Pros & Cons
Pros
Product comes in two different curvatures depending on the curvature of your fretboard. Tension is adjustable.
Shub makes the best capo for my money. For someone who does not have the hand strength in order to use those squeeze-type capos, this is your solution. This capo works better than expected! Using on a gibson g-200.
They are made from heavy metal with solid rivets. Well crafted and super compact. I keep buying them beause they are the best.
It is wonderful to hold, loose and heavy with all rounded corners and edges. I also like the convenience of having them ready to use in different locations.
I have a stainless steel one i use with my electrics, but this brass one looks better on an acoustic.
Cons
It has to be really tight to not pop off to the point that it pulls everything sharp.

It makes using all other capos seems like guitar abuse

While still of high grade materials i found this was a bit loose where the neck armature is riveted to the main structure

Consequently it is not that great for switching to different positions or between guitars
