if its pop rock you are mixing go listen to either Something Corporate album the first was mixed by Tom Lord-Alge and the second mixed by Jim Wirt and Phil Kaffell. Both have some great piano sounds and some loud rock guitars and are generally really thick mix's. Hi-pass everything guitars generally you woln't need anything below at least 150hz maybe even as high as 250-300 depending on the part. as for the piano try a hi-pass to like 100 than compress it with some 1176 ish compression and see how you sit, if you need to give it a slight bump from like 5K - 10K and see how that helps...
