I can sympathize. I regularly practice on a 5 string 35" scale unlined fretless beater bass and when I switch to my 4 string lined fretless Smith I can feel the change in scale. I much prefer the 34" scale. Once all my debts are paid off a Smith 5 fretless is in the cards..

It takes me about 2 minutes to adjust from 35" to 34" and be comfortable, and it takes about 5-10 to go back to 35"..
