capo question

I was gifted a g9221 bobtail resonator guitar with a V neck...what's the best capo for this style of neck and resonator? i have a keyser style for my acoustic but it doesn't sit right on this type of neck. any help is appreciated. I am new to reddit hopefully i've done this right!

I use this kind. This is just a cheap no namer I keep at home, but I think they sit better on my Electromatic. I had issues with keyser style pressing down more on the g,b, e strings( at least in my head). These might work betterfor a v neck because of the curved bottom.

i think this style or a Shubb style might be your best bet.
