Occasionally I find that the problem can be be build-up in the upper mids when the guitars get louder. It might be sitting OK in the quieter passages but harsh and irritating when the volume comes up. There's 2 ways of dealing with this - first you could split all the guitars into verse and chorus tracks and EQ them separately; or put a multi-band compressor on the guitar buss and just use one band set to the problematic frequency range and apply compression with a high threshold so that it only kicks in when the higher volume levels happen.

Some thoughts anyway, of things that have worked for me in the past.
