Well I currently have Peavey Rage 158 and thinking about upgrading too.

Fender Mustang II
Marshall MG30CFX
Peavey Vip 2
Roland 40XL

Tough choices...

any other recommendations and views on the above?

Marshall is good if you play on drive or distortion. Fender is good for cleans though I an not sure about the drive on the Mustang. The rest are modeling amps I think but don't know much about them.

What type of music do you plan on playing?

The Marshall would be good then. However, the Marshall only has plain drive, you will have to make your own effects chain if you want additional effects.

However, If you want some effects, then consider the Peavey or the Roland multi-effects amps.

Bought an Alesis DM6 electronic drum kit for around 27k a couple of days back. Always wanted to play drums but couldn't due to lack of space and money lol. So far, have learnt a couple of basic 4x4 beats and trying to learn some fills, but the hand-feet co-ordination while keeping time is killing me!

Cool. First start with simple 4/4 kick snare combo. Better practice with a metronome to get your timing right.

You should be able to play without a metronome after some practice.

Micro Terror is just an amp head. You will also need a cabinet to use with it.

Don't know about Blackstar, but the Micro Terror has crazy distortion. Listen to Boris and you will know.

I know about the Terror.

I feel that a good cabinet will go over my budget or even if I buy,it will be too much for a bedroom guitarist.

At least you should have 12'' speaker cabinet if you want to get an amp head. Otherwise no use.

From what I know, Metal Zone has a pretty weird eq. However, people say that you can even get Hendrix or Santana tones out of it if you know how to tweak it.
