If you're into recording guitars and want better-sounding mixes, do yourself a favor and stop obsessing over the following things:
​
1. Amp Sims

Endlessly trying and tweaking different amp sims is a colossal waste of time.
​
If your tone isn't great and easy to dial in within a few minutes, you're probably using the wrong IR.
​
Amazing guitar tones can be achieved with even the free amp sims available today as long as they're paired with a quality impulse response.
​
​2. Quad Tracking
​
​If you want "bigger" sounding guitar tracks, avoid recording unnecessary layers.
​
Recording more than one well-tracked rhythm guitar per side will often make your mixes sound cluttered and less clear.
​
​3. Panning
​
​Guitars are one of the easiest instruments to sit into a mix. The trick is to NOT overcomplicate things like the panning of your guitar tracks.
​
Pan your rhythms 100% L & R and call it a day. Panning them inwards will only make your mixes sound smaller.
​
​4. Input Levels
​
​Here's all you need to know about input levels: Don't clip on the way into your interface when recording.
​
​There you go...that's all you need to know. Overcomplicating this process is 100% unnecessary.
