Well, I bought a(n) MXR 10-band a couple of years ago after hearing
the effects on one a friend of mine bought.  I'm not a real hard-core
audiophile, but I do think that I have a fairly sensitive ear.  I 
played with mine a little while after I first got it, then I just 
set it (boosting everything but 500 & 1K a little bit and dropping
them about 3db;  that's just what I like, I don't know why...)  and
don't really fiddle with it any more.  On my amp, it gets hooked in
on one of the tape-loops (I have 2).  I've found that playing with
the control switches allows you to pipe the output of the eq. into
a feedback loop.  Since you can adjust the gain to be >1, you can
get oscillation (you can also play with the frequencies a lot).  It's
just something to try when you're really bored or messed up.
