As for mixing, it's a bit trickier, especially since I'm not that good mixer myself. And I mean your mixing is pretty good; you can hear everything well. Maybe try to make better guitar tone with VST and put guitars slightly louder to give more kickass feel, and maybe also cut the low frequencies. And add bass. Or, if it has bass, put it louder If you don't have bass, you can get free VST basses. I use one, it's not perfect, but good enough for now.
Thanks for advices
Sometimes I use three guitar tracks (one slightly more quiet in the middle (and different EQ (high pitch sound))). When I'm playing, sometimes I use vst, but real cab gives me more powerful sound when recording.
Like in Fragmented Soul I used vst (TSE X50 and Poulin LeCab2), but compare it to my latest song No Salvation. "Hum"/"buzzing" is the only problem with real amp and cab, but DI-box and audio interface helps pretty much to get rid of that. I could do "studio video" (eliminating hum, my gear, how I record and mix), but I broke my camera
