My set-up:
Gibson Les Paul
Digitech RP250 stompbox
and a Line 6 Spider II Amp (30)

Does anyone know of any way to get the perfect (or as near as possible) "Ska" sound? I play a bit of Ska, but my sound sucks when I play live. I want to get as close to Sublime and Streetlight Manifesto as possible.

Any ideas for effects, pickups, and/or settings to change for the sound?

Thanks...

By the way, first post here -- I hope you guys are nice!
