Tremolo pedal recommendations

Exactly what the title says...

I love the harmonic trem mode on the Flint, but already have a Big Sky.

Benson

Floyd Rose?

Sporky

I went through a few, and my favourite was the TC Nova Modulator because you could sync the two sides, one at half speed, and get wub-WUB-wub-WUB.

Source Audio Vertigo...............nice

monquixote

Do you specifically want the harmonic sound?

Wazmeister

Demeter Tremulator 
Diamond Trem

@monquixote Yes, mainly as my amp has a lovely trem.

Another vote for Diamond or The Mad Professor Mellow Yellow HW

Bought the Jack Rabbit - still meaning to list it on reverb.com.

Like keeping it simple. No tap-tempo, note divisions, whole range of wave-forms, etc. 

Everyone's different and into their thing.  But for me, tremolo is a simple effect and therefore, 'vol', 'speed' and 'depth' knob-control (lol) is all I need.

I've got a nice hand-wired tremolo pedal - cost me USD$100 - used to own a Fender Vibrolux amp with tube driven tremolo, still have the Suhr JR (but selling it).

If I were to suddenly "not" have my tremolo pedal and had to buy a replacement, I'd buy the "stock Boss" one.  If it's good enough for Jimmie Vaughan, then it's good enough for me.  If that wasn't available, I'd get the EHX 'Pulsar' one - or whatever it's called. (?)

*generally speaking* If you're really on a budget, you can always just use your volume on your guitar to get the effect.  It's the equivalent of the poor man's wah - by using your tone control on your guitar.

If I was going to get an all the "bells and whistles" tremolo, then I'd look at getting the Dr. Scientist one.

May you find the perfect tremolo pedal for your needs

The Source Audio Vertigo is meant to have a good harmonic mode

I don't know whether to "LOL" you, or "Wisdom" you on your post. (??) 

*edit.. settled on wisdom

If you are looking for a harmonic tremolo then most of the ones mentioned won't do that.
I think the Source audio one does and of course the Gravitas...

Moe_Zambeek

Vertigo.

funnily enough, I have one for sale!

moogerfooger mf102 ring mod. 

Yes it is a ring mod but it has so many tremolo settings on it and the sound is awesome

Teetonetal

Empress and moog both great pedals. The MF102 really is wonderful. Neither can do harmonic tremolo.

If you want stuttering tremolo moog is the way to go.

Ally

Gravitas. Lovely pedal. Massively versatile and beautiful sounds.
