What this you say about re-amping, Re-recording?
It's something I'm only just getting into now, but the big guys do it all the time. You just record a DI'ed signal in parallel with the amp. Then, at a later time you can send that signal from the DAW through another miked amp (or any device you want). That way, if the amp sound you got during recording doesn't sit well in the mix, you can still use the same performance and change the sound to your liking. It's also handy for adding a contrasting sound to the existing one to enhance it a bit. But considering how you've recorded the guitars (Marshalls generally have a great sound), I would suggest panning them a little more across the stereo spectrum, & eq'ing each of them a little differently so that their sounds "interlock" rather than "fight" each other for frequency space.
