I also always liked the idea of the Chadwick Folding Bass Hybrid for much cheaper or if the loan only gives me say $3500 then maybe a '39 Vintage Kay. Can someone give guidance? I'm into Milt Hinton, Joe zinkan type slapping as well as studying jazz online. Thanks.

LaScala from Gage? Why not
call Arnold where the basses first came from? If in or around NY, do not buy before you see Arnold. The best set-up and adjusted basses from a shop that sells bass is there in my experience.
