I've had good luck with certain Yamahas and also Ibanez Soundgear (tho play a few of either first, as the quality varies somewhat from bass to bass) ... the 4-string I use most is a Fender fretless j-bass special ... if I were going to buy a fretted 4-string I would probably try Fenders, Ibanezzes and Yamahas first (looking in the affordable range, anyway) ... in what way "funkier"?
