the song sounds a lot like Such Gold.

What I usually do for guitars in the EQ department is a HF around 1.5kHz. Maybe +6dB there, it all depends on the amp. Than a HMF around 7kHz. Maybe a +3dB there. I usually cut 1-3dB out of 1kHz as well depending on the amp. I cut about 3-4.5dB out of around 100Hz. I also have a highpass filter at about 75Hz. Just use that as a ball park and fool around with everything. Hope this helps.
