This is new to me, I’ve love to see what your preferred EQ settings are and why? Are there some of these that are irrelevant for our purposes? Thank you.

If your amp is a blackface Fender, usually I just boost 4/5 dbs on 400hz.

For me, it depends on the guitar and the amp. Different ones seem to demand different settings. I just tweak the sliders until I can't get a better sound. I mostly use my GE-7 as a boost pedal, with the frequency sliders flat, and the volume slider up to a level that works. Depending on the situation, I sometimes use it in reverse, off for solos, lower level for comping when on. I can't make one recommendation for everything, even for me.

What is that thing?

In my experience, the less the better with graphics, which are not the best sounding EQ's in the first place.
For me, I boost a tiny bit at 200 and/or 400 for a fatter jazz sound. It can be useful to do this and then turn it off for a thinner comping sound.
Or if there is a peak somewhere in the higher end a slight reduction is useful. Or down a bit at 100 for a boomy amp. Or up a bit at 800 for a lead rockish sound to get through the mix.
They are also useful to help correct for odd room acoustics.
But a little goes a long way. +15 or -15? Dubious.
