How we pick

Every Monday we score all used modulation pedals currently for sale that we can match to our catalogue. The Value score (0–100) combines:

  • Discount vs new (35%) — the used price against today's lowest new price. 40% or more under new gets full points.
  • Deal vs normal used price (25%) — cheaper than this model usually sells for second-hand. While we build up price history this part may be skipped and its weight goes to the discount.
  • Quality and reputation (20%) — review scores where we have them, otherwise brand reputation and how many famous artists use it.
  • Demand (10%) — how popular the model is on MyGear; popular models are easier to resell.
  • Listing freshness (10%) — recently confirmed listings score higher.

We only include listings between €40 and €1.500, at least 10% under new, and no more than 2 per brand and one per model, so the list stays varied. Prices change quickly; always check the listing. Links are affiliate links — they never change the ranking.
