Sorry for the delay--for some reason Gmail flagged the message as spam :(.
I'll definitely try the panning technique on the guitar tracks, and the Jamin preset is a big help!
Unfortunately, a big part of the problem is that I recorded the guitar tracks quite some time ago, before I had a good handle on guitar recording techniques, so these tracks have less to work with than I'd normally have, as they were direct-recorded with way too much distortion...
Thanks for the very helpful input!

Cool song, but I think the sound is a bit muddy. Have you panned your
guitars as much to the left and right as possible? In case not,
I think that would help a lot.
I also ran your song through jamin:

I only have headphones right now, so its probably not very good,
but maybe you find it interesting anyway. Here's the jamin preset file:
