Neck on one side then at the body pointing at the floor on the other side (similar to what you describe) is one of my favorite methods. Test them in mono/panned center to check for phase issues (which I've found in practice to be fairly minimal), if OK, do whatever you want with them.. One of the reasons I like the method is versatility...
1. Pan them sort of wide and it leaves the perfect hole in the middle for a vocal without having to resort to ITB tricks to create a stereo field for the guitar.
2. You can choose one or the other if needed.
3. You can blend and monoize them if the phase interaction is OK.
Even in a band setting, those choices are good to have at mixing time.
