The better Fender amps work splendidly for both purposes. I can think of even better amps for the "metal/effects" stuff, but they don't have anywhere near the clean sound of the Fenders.
Grand Guitar. It might suit for a big guitar.
Dean guitars, because The Showdown uses them.
Any guitar, electric or not, can play any genre of music. You can hear some people play the accoustic guitar in a very heavy metal fashion and classical has been played extremely well with a distorted electric guitar by famous bands like Epica, Nightscape, Magic Kingdom and Skylark, to name a few. There is a band that plays a heavy metal style and all they play is cellos (Apocalyptica), so it doesn't matter the instrument, any style can be attempted and sometimes successfully translated and conveyed.
For the same gauge designation, yes. "Standard" or "Regular" gauge acoustic strings are .013 to .056. Those would be considered very heavy strings on electric guitar, where "Standard" or "Regular" gauge strings would be .010 to .046.
The Rg50MZ is a good Ibanez started guitar and retails at about å£230 eg from dolphin music. This is suited to heavy metal. The GRG140 is about å£140 and is one of their cheapest guitars. Ibanez are considered a good quality guitar company, so even this guitar should have suitable tone and build quality for a starter guitar.

A wide variety of sounds, you can go from very heavy distortion (overdrive) to very warm and soft clean sounds you can also add alot of effects to it like a nice reverb or some delay for nice soloing work. Also you can play up the neck more easy than on, for example, an acoustic guitar also an electric guitar can be played alot louder, the only downside is you have to have an amplifier to get the best sound out of it or else it sounds like a really bad acoustic guitar
The Ovation is a fine acoustic guitar different only by the amplification factor. It was designed to amplify its body acoustics and not for heavy based effects like distortion. However, being amplified means that you can still use some good effects. Many professionals like an ethereal sound by adding a small amount of chorus, reverb and maybe a touch of flanger or phaser.
The best techniques for playing an electric metal guitar include mastering palm muting, alternate picking, string bending, and using distortion effects to create a heavy sound. Additionally, practicing regularly, learning scales and arpeggios, and experimenting with different tones and settings on the guitar and amplifier can help improve your metal guitar playing skills.

To create a high-quality metal guitar rig, you will need a solid electric guitar with humbucker pickups for heavy tones, a high-gain amplifier for distortion, a sturdy speaker cabinet for projection, quality cables for connectivity, and effects pedals like distortion, delay, and reverb for added depth and texture to your sound.
It would be hard. Try using 9-42 or 10-45.
Heavy metal music usually has an very distorted electric guitar that creates a powerful ambiance by exceeding the amplifiers' capacity. That distortion exists somewhat in every heavy metal song.
