Black Shubb capo and red metronome
Description
I lost my black Shubb guitar capo and a small red metronome yesterday around 3pm, somewhere near the State Capitol area on State Street in Albany. The capo is matte black with a tiny white logo on the clamp, and the metronome is a bright red plastic unit about the size of a playing card, with a noticeable scratch along the bottom edge. They were in a soft black zipper pouch that has my initials 'PP' in white on the corner. This gear isn’t just stuff—it helps me practice and the metronome was a gift from my old music teacher, so I’m really hoping to get them back. If anyone found them near Empire State Plaza or the nearby cafés, please consider returning them.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
