Crank up presence a bit as well, if you have that option. Otherwise consider recording through a DI (Direct Input) setup so you can sort out the EQ properly afterwards

Try recording either direct into the interface (if you have a line level guitar input, if not, use a DI box as Focus said). If the recordings come out better you know it's to do with your micing
