RE: Can anyone tell me how to mix guitars like these?
Hey, I'm trying to duplicate the sound of the mix of the guitars....They have an incredible prescence and a little delay obviously doubled and an awesome sounding compression! I hear it all the time in todays mixes and they only way I can sound current with my mixes is to can a handle on this...(-:

90% of it is just: nice guitar double-tracked into great amp in a well-treated room, played tight as hell with a great bass sound underneath. there isn't anything special or weird happening in the mix, it's just very well done. get the source right and the mix is easy.
RE: Can anyone tell me how to mix guitars like these?
kinda a bit flat out with work and mixing my own band but like i said, it's going to come down to what you're recording. what's your guitar rig/recording chain? also what kind of bass recording chain (critical for a good guitar sound - just to get that anchored thing). i'd suggest a good starting point would be... hmm, a gibson into a nice medium/high gain amp, mic'ed up with a combination of a condensor and a dynamic mic. make sure you have room treatment around the amp to stop it sounding boxy.
