Hi all, I'm looking for a good tremolo pedal, I found a Solidgoldfx Stutter lite mk1 pedal at an affordable price where I live, It's a good brand but this pedal is not exactly like a tremolo as the name. Maybe it looks a bit similar to brownface princeton's tremolo I dont sure. There are a few review on Youtube, Do you think it would be a good choice for surf or should I go for something else? I will use it with Surfybear classic. Thanks in advance.

It is expensive for me (there is ridiculous taxation in my country, it would cost me much more) I found this pedal for 70 dollars. At least I think it is of much better quality than China clones, but in terms of character it seems to be much sharper than classic tremolos, and among the alternatives there is also Boss TR2 for the same price, which one do you think would be better?

I never tried any of these. However among the cheaper alternatives I may highly recommend Marshall Vibratrem. I have it for 20 years and still use quite often.

Thanks, I'll look into that too but I think I'm looking for something more specific.
Actually I already have two tremolos, carl martin surftrem v1 and mooer mod factory (since it is a modeling pedal it destroys the natural sound)
Actually the Surftrem design and sound are very nice but something is still missing.
Of course, my expectation is not that unique tremolo in Fender amps, just the closest thing to it and I have very few options here.

Save your money for the Surfy Trem, or Surfy Vibe. That totally sucks about the extra costs! But I still say buy once, cry once.

I recommend the Supro Tremolo pedal. Sounds the most amp-like and is readily available.
