<Sorry, Randy, a good acoustic dog-house double bass
<has overtones that can't be duplicated on an electric
<-- plus, it can be bowed to quite nice effect (yes, in jazz).


Thanks , Henry Stinson,
For bringing in the issue of bowed bass. 
Marvelous examples in records from Pops Foster, Bill Johnson, 
Wellman Braud, etc.  THIS cannot be duplicated with electro-basses.
