I don't really use my pedals much should I sell them

I had a few overdrives that I didn't use - they lost low end. I gave then to young guitarists I know that were grateful for the gifts. Now I have a crossover pedal on the way that will(at least should in theory) make some of those usable. I re-bought the one I really wanted to have back. There's a lesson here; I just have no idea what it is.
 
I'm reading that you are keeping your floor tuner, and not finding much use for the others?
That's about the boat I'm in. I use a MX81 DI. Gives me FOH support and a little tone shaping. I have a compressor that just tightens and fills out my tone. I have a tuner. I just recently added a HPF pedal, but not convinced It's really needed. Last time I played, It was off and I think my tone sounded better. Not entirely done with it yet, but close. Point is, everything I have is useful. If it isn't, there's no point in having it with me. - I did pick up an MS60B pedal a while back thinking that if I ever did have a need for an envelope or a reverb or something, I could get something passable out of it. Not needed it in like a year. I will probably still hang onto it because it's a good tuner and there is security in owning a kitchen sink pedal. - Just some random thoughts. Hope this helps you sort your decision....
 
The answer you seek cannot be found on an Internet forum. You’ll notice many of the replies state, “if it were me”. Therein lies the problem, you are. not THEM. First, enter an altered state of consciousness. If you prefer not to use drugs, then just stay awake for 48 hours. You should begin to hallucinate by then. Find a quiet, dark place, and get comfortable, but don’t fall asleep yet. Let your mind scan the furthest reaches of the collective consciousness, and listen. Before too long, if you are lucky, and you open your heart, you may hear a voice, speaking directly to you. You may or may not like what you hear, but do as it says, without question, without hesitation.
Were you in an "altered state" when you posted this?:eyebrow:

I don't use them much mostly in the house. thinking about selling it but feel like I may regret it, any similar experiences?
Unless you need the money keep them. I couldn't tell you how many times I've busted old pedals out and had a blast with them.
