Hey man, awesome tones. However small suggestion, if you want more meat in the amp during the tracking process blend the 57 with a sennheiser E609 for some more attack and push it down to make the guitars cut through a bit more.

I'd try a nice reverb, and put the mix at around 35% and go from there. Some parallel compression might help as well.

Ditto to what Noodles said. I usually find that especially in the high end (9-15 KHz) i only boost or cut by 1-2 dB. When getting rid of the muck in a master you should cut no more than 3.3 dB.

Quick one that worked for me when i was engineering my band. We used an ORTF mic pattern behind the drummer and a standard A-B overhead pattern. With the ORTF you want to EQ it and Compress it, don't crush it but make it push in time with the snare. Also push them down in the mix and use the A-B...

I highly recommend a Motu 8 pre. They're super stable and you can link 4 of them together. I've had mine for about 4 years now and not a single problem yet.
