Mono or Stereo?

Simple question. Is it better to record guitar tracks in mono or stereo tracks? And should there be any panning done to the cab blocks?
 
If you use a stereo preset , delay , etc , better go stereo , no extra panning . You may record mono , and double your track panning left and right with a little delay (0,06) for ...;) more texture in the sound
 
I record stereo but I'm cheating: I have a mono dry signal and a mono wet signal. I usually pan dual tracked guitars 75/75 and the wet signal on the opposite side at 100% pan. Pure stereo (ie, stereo effects) is only for live use. I didn't find a way to make a single streo guitar sound good and dual tracking with stereo effects gets muddy and confused pretty fast.
