If I remember correctly, I don't think you need any SQL in order to change the starting gear for a character. The only thing you should have to edit to modify a players starting gear is CharStartOutfit.dbc.
You can open a DBC file with this: https://github.com/WowDevTools/WDBXEditor/releases
You can learn more about the file documentation with this: https://wowdev.wiki/DB/CharStartOutfit
For every item you want to add, you will have to include the item id, display id, and inventory type. Make sure all of the data is placed into the proper fields. If you place the item id for your item in, "ItemID_4" then the display id will have to be put into, "DisplayItemID_4" and so on.

Note that it depends on your server if it actually is enough to edit the DBC. In either case it is completely enough to edit the server for the player to get the items. The client uses the DBC only to preview the equipment on character creation.
