GC:

Have you tried the good ol' foam block at the bridge w/ flatwounds trick? With some experimenting you may get that ol' timer off your back.

Although the trick won't fool any real string bass players, it gets you better than halfway there without buying any new equipment. It works better on some basses than others, of course. 'Works great on older basses with Humbucking pickups; try a fretless if you have one.

FWIW,
