Like Randall, I'm a "Shubb guy"...they're small, have adjustable tension, don't get in the way (regardless of placement), and are easily modifiable (to cut them down or to add rubber to better fit instruments/uses). I use a LOT of capos, especially partials that capo 3, 4 or 5 strings, from both sides of the neck. Shubbs are small enough to be able to fret notes above, under or behind the capo and be able to move the fretting hand up and down the neck. Nothing else I've tried works as well or as easily.
