Noob recording a full setup for the first time - comments, please

[KlotziDotCom]

Hello everyone,

I am very new to recording, did a couple of things with Guitar Rig, Amplitube, but never the "real" deal.

We are recording our demo at the moment and I wanted real amps so the demo tracks sound as much like "us" as possible.

This is my first try in micing a real amp / cab and i'd like to hear your input on it.

Since "Holy Diver" has become a favourite for tone tests in this forum, I used the main riff for the test.

What do you say, what should I adjust?

Tracks are unprocessed, 1 Track each side, panned 100%.

Thank you!

It'd be handy to hear the tracks in a full mix as it's relatively difficult to judge guitar tracks completely out of context. I'd say it sounds a tad fizzy, but like I said it'd be far easier to judge in a mix.

There you go, that's about the best I can do at mixing:
