Thanks Slipperman! Here is my 2cents on recording guitars, of which I do rock and mainly Marshalls Try a couple of mics 57, 421 and a ribbon (cascade's are cheep and good). Also try and sum to one track and eq that track instead of all of them separately. Cut the low end either in tracking or in the DAW. For me anything below 80hz is a problem. I shelf as high as 150hz at times. Also watch out for the 9k region, there can be a ring up there that can be notched out as well as the 2-5k range which should be checked for any ringing. Phase align your tracks ala James Lugo in the DAW before you begin tracking w/ multiple mics.
