Hi,
Would ya'll say that the L2500 is a good five string for funk, RnB, disco, etc? |

| | | | Yeah--I'm thinking it would be a good way to go--not TOO modern, but not entirely "retro" either. I'm thinking, something that could pull off some classic fingerstyle funk and soul(I'm not much for slapping I admit), but also some modern RnB where you need that big wide slab of low end cushion.
Hmmm . . . |

/solemn oath
Too bad I am not super cashed up at the mo, the one to grab would be Pok's (which oddly I can't dig up a link to). You know, gun-metal blue. |

The only thing I can think of that might be better for old-school funk is an L-2000. I just took ownership yesterday of an SB-2 that i've yet to put through it's paces, but I think it's going to work nicely for that also.

I just got a a BABP LE L2500 and totally dig it.
