I'm thinking of buying a new guitar but i'm not too sure what would be the best to get. I'm pretty new and this would be my 2nd bass, the first being a basic fender precision bass. From looks alone I'd go with a Epiphone Thunderbird, but i'm not too sure if it's sound is what I'd like. As mentioned I'd play alt rock along the lines of Billy Talent, Rise Against, Green Day, Foo Fighters and a touch of metal such as Metallica and Black Sabbath. Any help would be much appreciated
