Rules of thumb for EQing?

[Chibi Nappa]

After all the techie talk and dust dies down, I think there really is a rule of thumb and perhaps only one: Adjust EQ by subtraction if at all possible.

I spent a year or two down that road. It ends up making no sense. The only rule of thumb: Do what you need to do.
