Really though, any good electric guitar could do any of the things you mentioned.  Your success will depend more on you than the instrument.  If you live in a reasonably large city there are probably a half-dozen instruments in today's Craigslist that could work well for you.  If you know anyone who knows about electric guitars they might be able to look at candidates with you and give you an idea about how good a guitar is, how good it could be with a little work, and how good a bargain it appears to be.
Good luck,
