    Help mixing guitars for metal/hardcore

    check out Izotope.Its fucking scrumptious. no need for miking anything.... If you want a nice heavy tone, check through the presets... i think one is called heavy drive tube or something...Naturally, i would suggest tweak it to your liking.. but believe me, trash is a beast.
