So, that's the root of the problem. Imho the best way (if you want to record different mics, positions, cabs) is:
1. Record the first guitar and pan it to center
2. Take another guitar, cab etc and find sound which you like
3. Change mics, mic positions, etc until 2 guitars will sound good when panned to center (eg in mono).
4. Then, and only then check them panned hard
BTW afair "panned hard" isn't 60/60, but 100/100, isn't it?
If you didn't want to re-record your tracks you can try:
1. Add some delay (0.01-20 ms, more likely 0.01-5ms) to one track. It may change phase issues. Or may not.
2. Put 2 guitars to the folder track, then use plugin chain M\S Encoder->EQ->MS Decoder. This way EQ's left channel will eq center and right channel will eq side. Then cut low on the side, and add low on the center. As I understand from examples "when I switch to mono they sounds much worse" is less low (or low mids).
PS Some EQ's can do this without encoder-decoder.
But the first way is better.
