Hi guys
Im recording some live mixes and the problem Im dealing right now is the guitar tones..

the room is built so the 2 guitar amps are directed 45 degrees to the drumset and the rest 45 degrees to the player so everyone in the room would be able to hear the guitars when playing

alltough , when it comes to recording it , I have some problems because basically there is too much bleed from the drums - so I need to eq this , and when I eq the high I can hear some shit from drums that I dont want to hear and lets not talk about phase issues

what you guys do in that situation when you want everyone in the band hear the guitars but make the source better?
 
I'd mic the cabs facing the wall and give the drummer a headphone mix.

Your way will have phase and bleed issues no matter what. Especially in a tight room.
