Help settle a bet (Jaco quote content)

Ok, simple question. I could swear I read a quote from Jaco about how he felt he wasn't so much playing bass as playing a "lower tuned guitar" or something like that. Am I crazy, or is that a real quote? If real, what's the referrence? Thanks

I've never read that quote before. Google it.

Google... Jaco? Quote? Guitar?

I tried, but with such incredibly common key phrases the results are unusably broad.

What you might have heard was.
Jaco said, that he played the "electric bass guitar".
Meaning, it was different than an upright bass.

I never read anything like that ever
