The way I see it with this tune, if you're going for a panned guitars mix, then it all comes down to get a tight balance between guitars and rhythm section. That was beautifully achieved, almost flawless. Maybe second guitar could be a little softer (it's the sloppier of the two) and not so close, but that's just mitunia. Toms are practically gone, but then I'm not really missing them (maybe a little, but I'd rather have suggested toms than artificially dry and prominent).
What's hurting the mix a little is the organ. It's the less colorfoul part and those long square chords are somehow suffocating and mud everything else. Vocal feels like it should have some more ambiance and space, but the organ is denying it, so it has to make do with volume and compression and eventually it sounds even closer to the mic than the raw track (which was lips touching mic close).
Nothing than a 15 minutes session cannot solve.
