I'm wondering if adding a sligtly delay anywhere from .1-10 miliseconds would remove any phase cancelling in guitar track when Using multiply mics

I think you mean the "Haas Effect"
If I remember well it works from 13-24ms but I'm not really sure about that.
You should just try it out, but I think it won't work (well). I use a delay on one guitar when playing for fun with ampsims to get a fuller sound while tracking, but still get at certain notes some mono effects.
Try to place the mics to avoid issues or just work with them (see clayman thread)

The Korg D3200 I mix on has a patch called "Early Reflections" thats based around a 0.3ms delay and if you place that effect on your master bus, take a totally 100% wet mixdown of your rhythm tracks and copy it to a stereo track panned hard left and right, eq'd properly it really fattens things up if you drag it back by a few ms and run it at a low level underneath your normal mix.
Ok we'll here is i have my mesa triple rec miked up with 1 sm57 on the right side and i have the line out on the back coming into my interface and running it throught a ourcab simulator on the mesa cab setting and delay the two cab by varied amounts

unfortunately moving tracks ahead will not improve the phase relation between the two tracks. It is an issue of polarity rather than time.
you are better off experimenting with reversing polarity (phase) of one of the tracks. there is a plug by beta bugs audio that will do that for you

Actually, flipping polarity will help with issues of polarity and adjusting back and forth will help with issues of phase. They are two different, related things.

this thing can do it very well but the best solution always would be to re-record it.

Chances are that you'll *change* the phase interaction but not remove it.
(When I say 'chances are', I mean that unless you have something that basically looks like a shifted copy, you're not getting rid of all of the 'phase cancellations'.)
Figure out the distinction between interaction and cancellation and you'll see why the answer looks so remarkably useless.
