The only reason for extra distortion on a guitar recording,is that the levels are to hot/or overdriven.First of all,distorted guitars are probably the most difficult thing to record well.what are you using for an interface?I know personally between the last 4 soundblaster's,there is a world of difference between their ability to handle distorted guitars.
