Clarifying frequencies opens a spatial dimension in addition to wavelength consideration or opening up frequency spectrum.
EQ helps define the SIZE of the instrument and the sound.
Multiple stages of EQs is basic technique.
SHADOW metaphor
Because the guitar tone control is a low pass filter, the control doesn't have any effect on the low frequencies below the EQ's cut off frequency; it only effects higher frequencies above the cutoff frequency. Since most EQ is subtractive, an EQ after your guitar, before the amp, enables access to low frequencies for roll off (or boost too, but watch out) depending on the instrument, the amp, and the room/space you are playing in, and your ears. Get big ears. Grow golden ears.
...more to come for sure.
