Question for any recording guitarists?

I use Magix Music Maker for recording my own personal demo tracks for
reference/ideas since I'm a writing musician. I put a USB mic in front
of my very basic Ibanez amp and record with clean setting. I might
change my methods in the future but this is what I have right now. The
program comes with a virtual amplifier with many effects.

My question is, what are some good EQ and effects for making this sort
of music linked below...
