If you like the sound of your guitar and the room you record in has good sound (and hopefully some acoustic treatment), then you shouldn't need much EQ, except to let it blend into the other parts of a recording. Track it well, you dont' need to do much else.

I've used very minimal chorus on one song I recorded in the last year. Compression very occasionally if I find I've got a hard attack strumming going on.
Reverb (very minimal) goes on most tracks when I record, using a buss.

Anything else would be an effect for the effect's sake, not to make the guitar sound better.
