You can't cut or boost frequencies that aren't there.

In my experience of playing in heavy bands, that absolutely would not work. You've got two heavily distorted guitars and a hard hitting drummer. There's no compromise going to fix that, as a bassist you have to find a tone that fits with the band and it certainly exists but I can guarantee it will sound bloody awful in isolation.

I found overdrive made a huge difference in creating a sound that could cut through heavy guitars. EQ is definitely a big part of it though.

If you want to play in bands forget about YOUR tone, it doesn't matter. It's no good having great solo tone if you disappear behind guitars and drums.

Would you help them lose their talent or good looks?

It should be illegal to be talented and good looking. One or the other please. If you can play bass like Mike Watt then you should have the decency to look like, well Mike Watt (I didn't think this example though)

My old Ibanez SRMS805. Partly due to it being awesome to play, partly due to it sounding great, partly due to using it in a great band. It was a proper metal machine. It worked so well with heavy distortion and the clarity on the B string was spot on. -
