DON'T DO IT MAN! I've heard various acoustic bases played in quiet rooms over the years. I've seen them on stage many times and had them next to me on stage many times. I have yet to hear one loud enough. (I've heard the martin, the guild, and the (awful) tacoma)
You're much better off finding a $1,500 upright. Even a cheap upright sounds better than any of those giant acoustic basses.
Most of the acoustic bases never stay in tune, are'nt audible without re-enforcement, and...well.....sorry to go on a rant here.....
I would say "no"
