If you want a good sitar sound (and a lot of other sounds...) you should try the Rolang GR-33. Yes it's a guitar synth. It costs a lot more than the Danelectro pedal, but it opens a world of possibilities that are truly amazing.
The sitar sound is very good. As are the synth pads that can take you into other realms while playing the guitar. One preset worth checking out is one with a Tabla loop sound in the low E string and a sitar sound in the other strings: Instant Asia Rave Party!!!
