What George said. A good low C wood bass is in the 7-9k range.
And you will be expected to play in the altissimo at times even on bass.

If you're a student, most bands provide school owned instruments for bass players.

You will need a good mouthpiece. Lessons from a good private teacher are always recommended. Do you take lessons? What does your teacher recommend?

You should play test several instruments before buying - be careful buying one off of the internet. Its best to buy from a local store so that you can play and compare several instruments.
