So because I am too much of a cheapskate to buy a capo, I decided to try and, well, improvise one. I looked for a few ideas and then looked at what I had. I came up with a pink sharpie and some rubber bands. To get the rubber bands to hold it down tightly, you will need a lot of them and you will need to place your object (in this case, pink Sharpie) as close to the fret to get a clear sound. You can use many objects for this so just see what you have and happy playing.

But how would you do that? putting rubberbands at the ends of the highlighter doesnt do anything. you need something to go behingd it to hold it down
wow, i thought it was obvious that the bands wrapped around to the other side...attaching to the other end of the highlighter
