574 - Are Reverb about to completely transform the second hand gear market...again?
Brian, Blake, and Richard are joined by Cyril Nigg from Reverb for Episode 574 as we ask - Are Reverb about to completely transform the second hand gear market...again?
This week the guys are joined by the senior director of analytics from Reverb, Cyril Nigg, and they immediately go digging for the gear industry's dirty secrets. Reverb have just published their Reverb Price Index for the pedal market in 2025 and it makes fascinating reading. Cyril knows a vast amount about the market and has fantastic insights into the trends and movements that shape the gear world.
Theres a potted history of Reverb and a look at what makes it unique, and this leads on to an in-depth look into the guitar and pedal market. Cyril also has some views on the rise of modeling pedals versus the classic multi-fx units of yore and the guys also look at the dynamics around a release before Cyril and Richard share some Microsynth woes.
Do you think there is something magical about musical instruments from the past? It's the eternal question and as well asking Cyril to predict the future, we also look into the past. The guys are warmed to hear about some of the buying trends that follow events like the recent "Back to the Beginning" concert. There are also a bunch of insights into Reverb features that you may not know about before the guys touch on something that may change the second hand gear market forever.
This is an awesome episode for anyone interested in the gear market and guitar gear in general - huge thanks to all the guys at Reverb!
Electro Harmonix, Tuba Testers, Bad Monkey, More Nuno, Tony Iommi...it’s all in this week’s Chasing Tone!
