I got 20 years professional experience if that counts :)
With Mic'd, you're locking yourself into a final sound, have to contend with the quality and type of microphone and the experience of the engineer...amp noise..mic placement..room noise etc..

If you record direct with no effects but monitor yourself with something close to your finished sound...you can later take a line out from the solo'd guitar track into the studio, run it through an amp and mic it again. Better yet, just use Amplitube. You can experiment with combinations until you find the exact guitar sound you're looking for.

If you absolutely must record with a mic'd amp, at the very least use 2 mic's so you've got a choice, & take a line out direct just in case.
