which of these solutions for a violin/cello tone do you guys prefer?

i've been studying guthrie govan's violin technique lately, and while doing so, i've also been looking up various videos on using pedals to emulate a violin tone. i've gathered a few different approaches and curious, which of these methods do you guys think is the best?

my criteria for what makes a method 'good' are based on a few angles, though there might be other factors I haven't considered:

- it sounds closer to an acoustic violin/cello tone.

- it is more convenient/easier to use.

- it offers better bang for the buck.

use klowra verdict

use ehx swello

use fender tone master pro

use ehx micro pog with compressor, fuzz, eq

i'm particularly interested in the ehx swello and klowra verdict. after all, being able to pull off a violin emulation with just a single compact pedal is incredibly appealing, and it seems like the tones on both of them are pretty much on par with each other.

love to hear what you think!
