Need experienced ears (Guitar Tone)

I'm working on recording some originals and I wanted to get some feedback from people with more experienced ears than I about my guitar tone. Here's a raw track (no in the box eq or editing at all):

Here's my signal chain for each guitar:
Left Guitar: Fender Strat> TS9> Blackstar HT Stage 60 OD1> SM57 (mic'd slightly off center)> PT
Right Guitar: Gibson Les Paul> TS9> Blackstar HT Stage 60 OD2> SM57 (mic'd slightly off center)> PT

Any and all feedback that will help me get the best recording I can is appreciated. Thanks!

I just listened to what you have, and you might want to check the tuning on your guitar. It sounds a little flat to me.

I'm sure it was. I just put on new strings a few days ago, still breaking them in. I was asking more along the lines of how the tone sounds than how the tuning is. When I go to record the actual takes for the song I'll be sure they're in tune :)
Thanks for the input though.
