the thing is that for many people (myself included), experimenting and GASing takes a huge chunk of time that they could invest playing/practicing and improving musical experience that way. And when you have very limited time to begin with, it becomes a problem.
As far as eq-ing acoustics, I found that picks have much grater impact than on electrics (I was electrics-only until recently, so it's a revelation for me), so they can be used as a cheap and easy to swap eq device. I have few dozen different brands, models, thicknesses, shapes of picks on my desk, as I'm making a review for my website. It's interesting to hear how all the different properties of the pick influence the sound.
