they allow you to cut or boost certain frequencys. like if you boost the treble on a guitar amp you are probably boosting frequencys between 3-6khz quite a wide bandwidth, but if you cut on a graphic it'll have a narrow bandwidth (depending on how many bands it has) If you are doing live sound you can take advantage of this by notching out the frequency that is feeding back. I woundn't say you get more control with a graphic, you can get just as much with a fully parametric eq and they are easier to set up quickly, but graphic eq's are more suited to certain applications.
