General Tom EQ tips?

ouch. Im guessing at least you got some tips from that senior engineer on how to do it right?

Its weird, he'll tell me what it lacks but he wont necessarily go into how to achieve that better sound. Almost as if he doesn't want to devulge all of his secrets lol. And I understand "right and wrong" is very subjective when it comes to engineering but sometimes I dont feel like he's giving me enough to steer me in the right direction. I'd say a good 60% of my learning comes from here. 40% hands on trial and error.
