Anyone know of a good way to get a drone effect?

I've seen (but never used) some Korg pedals that have a drone effect...but the pedals seem to be way more than I want.

I'd like something simple to create a decent drone.

I've tried various methods of using a volume pedal and delay pedal (for looping) but I can't really get anything close to a real consistent drone.

Any ideas?

ebows are fantastic. usually i don't go in for a lot of guitar accessories besides distortion, wah/volume and delay, but ebows are really cool, and they greatly expand the types of tone and expression you can get out of a guitar.

Holy crap! $150!

I could probably save some money and just hire someone to actually play the tanpura for me...
