IMHO, you'll have more flexibility with VSTs than your amp at this moment, especially when you're experimenting with a sound. If you choose to record your amp rather than use the suggest method above, you'll find yourself re-recording the same take over and over again experimenting with things like different mic positions when you could just tweak your VST to get the desired results. Once you can achieve the tone you want on the VST, replicate the setup in real life with actual gear. You got this man.

oh I should've mentioned I use a Two Notes Captor (no cab n mic), a little attenuator box with a cab sim, straight into my soundcard. I then play with the plugins quite a bit (including a cab sim software).
I'll come back with something you guys can listen to, it'll likely be pretty shit but then you can tell me what you think would make it a bit more listenable if you like.
