You still want stage level to be consistent between instruments. Open-back guitar cabinets are less beamy than closed-back cabinets, and have less acoustic suspension fake bass to boot.

Live sound does not have to be particularly artificial at all so long as the venue has decent acoustics. You probably don't need the reverb or compression, and EQ is really only any good as a mixing tool.
