I like the EHX Worm. It has a vibrato-, wah-, tremolo- & phasermode.

Does anyone know of a pedal that accurately creates the vibrato of a vintage Fender?

Dunno about a vintage fender but what hooked me on tremolo was Ry Cooders tremolo sound on the movie 'crossroads' especially 'feeling bad blues'...someone here on the forum told me it was the Demeter tremulator but i think it's based more on the old mangatone tremolo...personally my TR-2 covers most bases for me on gigs..

I really like the PN-2. While not that common they can be found on eBay for around $100. Also, Alice has the berringer 300 for sale in non Boss items, great deal and they sound nice.

Hi happyplucker
It's really good to see you back.
You must have missed a Million great posts.

I've sent you a pile of PM's I was getting really worried that
something may have happened to you.
It's good to know you are still around.

How is the CE-2 I repaired for you?
Does it need some more (R&R) Rest & Recreation, back here in Oz?
It has a few new cousins it hasn't met since it's last visit.

Regards Dr. Bob

+1... the PN-2 is awesome as it also does pan and it's stereo in and out. The Behringer clone of the PN-2 is a great approximation if you can't find the real thing although build quality is a bit of an issue...

i'm another PN-2 fan.

i've had a load of 'boutique'/higher-priced trems too, but i'd say the PN-2 is my favourite.
i also have a Colorsound Trem which i love, but it's a bit limited in its features - it does one thing (old school Vox-style tremolo) but does it exceptionally well.

I have never used any other tremolo besides a boss tr-2.I love the thing and never needed to look at another one. I have an original tr-2 the i had Keeley mod to fix the volume loss but that's about it

Analogman TR-2 is pretty sweet. If you're on a budget, Dunlop/MXR tremolo sounds okay (the purple one). If you looking for higher end stuff, I'd recommend Redwitch Pentavocal.

I like the Voodoo Labs Tremolo.... it's better than the PN-2 as far as tremolos are concerned. It can't pan the sound around and about though
