Sitar Sounds out of a Guitar

["James Ko" <Kojaque@email.msn.com>]

Hi all.

I was wondering if anyone out there knows a way to get a sitar-like sound
out of a regular electric guitar.  Is there a pedal or combinations of
pedals that would do it?  I'd like a way to quickly switch back and forth
from "sitar sound" to "guitar sound" so sticking bent paperclips or such in
the bridge area won't do it for me and I don't want to go find a Cort Sitar
either.  I'm sure a bunch of you must have already tried something like 
this
in the past.

Thanks a lot
