capo for fretless

[sir juice]

I've recently been tuning my bass DGCF. I've just started relearning Teen Town and it uses a ton of open string notes. I've tried putting on a standard capo, but since it's a rubbery bit that touches the strings, all I get is a muted sound on my open strings.

Is there a capo that has enough tension to actually provide a decent note, or a capo that uses something harder than rubber to touch the strings.

I reckon this problem could be reasonably regular problem, which is why I'd rather do this than use a capo. My bass at the moment sounds perfect and plays perfect for my needs, so the littlest change, the better.

BUMP I'm wondering the same thing

Capo's don't come anywhere near my Fretless basses.
I don't want my fingerboards destroyed when the capo mashes the strings down.

I experimented with de fretting an old acoustic guitar, and something i noticed was that i had a hard time fretting down on the high E strings because the string was so thin that my finger would sort of just wrap around it to the fingerboard beneath and not push down all the way.

I think that a similar thing would happen with a Capo on a fretless.
It would push down hard on one side, but the thinner strings would not have firm contact.
