You're going to have to play one yourself, because that will sound different than me playing a Palatino, or anyone else playing a Palatino. Just like any other bass.
Let me edit this right now, lest you think that I was being glib... it's a little hard to assess how a bass will sound and feel in your hands, without actually getting those particular hands on the bass. If at all possible, try to play the Palatino first. I bought my current bass without playing it first, and it's worked out well to say the least. But it's a scary proposition overall, and I think it should be avoided whenever possible.
I've recently been listing to sound clips of a couple of different basses (NOT double basses), and if I based my opinion on the sounds I heard, I'd run in the other direction. Yet I might be missing out on a perfectly viable instrument as a result.
