  We perform a quark model calculation of the $b\bar{b}$ and $c\bar{c}$ spectra
from a screened funnel potential form suggested by unquenched lattice
calculations. A connection between the lattice screening parameter and an
effective gluon mass directly derived from QCD is established. Spin-spin energy
splittings, leptonic widths and radiative decays are also examined providing a
test for the description of the states.
