If you'd use the first and last section as LF and HF shelf filters they would be at e.g. 20..40 Hz and 10..20 kHz, maybe with the BW increased a bit. But it makes not sense to have defaults for the frequencies any more than for the gains, just set them to what is required. If you get some experience as a sound engineer you will learn the 'typical' EQ frequencies for single instruments or voices, and this will enable you to set an EQ much faster than without that experience. But for mastering you just have to listen and find out.
