Maybe one for off topic?

Damn auto-correct!

I used to have a PN-2 but was a bit underwhelmed with it. I have built modified versions of the Kay tremolo ad the Vox Repeat Percussion. They're both nice, if one trick ponies. My favourite (non amp tremolo) so far is the Tremulous Lune. It's pretty versatile and sounds nice.

Then get rid of something else or get. A hummingbird

Demeter is by far the best I've tried but it is a basic amp like trem so won't get too wacky. In which case I'd go for a Surh Jack Rabbit.

I'm fairly convinced I'll go for a hummingbird. Will have to wait another month as I just pulled the trigger on a tc t2 reverb.

For cheap, the Danelectro cool cat trem sounds really cool - the footswitch is awful though

Put this little yoke in a cooler enclosure and you could charge a fortune for it. Sounds lovely.

It is droolsome. Honestly.

  Didn't I see Andy on PGS demo this??   If it's the one I'm thinking of, it touched off a massive GAS attack...

"Need an effect? See if Catalinbread makes one and start from there."

Catalinbread have got three - the Paredolia, which is a BF Vibrato super-tremolo type thing; the Semaphore, which is a 6-knob beast with expression pedal input; and the Valcoder, which is new for NAMM and will take a wee while to make it to the shops - a super-choppy Valco-amp-type tremolo that has caught my eye as a compliment to the trem on my Princeton Reverb for my Tarantino-soundtrack obsession (No Ed, shush. You don't need any more pedals YES I DO ALL THE PEDALS)

DAMMIT!!  Now I want one of those, too...      They were spot on about "Down by the Seaside"- that song DOES take you someplace great.  I'd also add Bonzo's drumming to the keys to that song.

Do they still make the Danelectro Tuna Melt? 

Cheap, exceptionally cheerful and stands up well with the bigger, more expensive boys.
