Docgorpon,
I have to ask. when you recorded the mike behind the cab did you phase invert the signal? If not it will definitely muddy up the signal. You can always try reamping the recorded track. This would entail feeding a line level signal out to a guitar amp and cab and then re-micing with an SM57 or the like. This will give you an opportunity to find the sweet spot in the cabinet and get a proper sound. Trying to fix it in the mix is kind of hard to do if what you have in the recording is less than stellar.
You could try using an Amp modeler but I think you'll only get back mud. But then again I could be wrong.
