Guitar effects on GarageBand?

I am writing a song on GarageBand from iLife '09, and the style is
somewhat like 60's surf rock and modern punk weird, I know; I am
recording with a MIDI cable and my Yamaha PSR-275, and I have no
electric guitar or amp. I've been trying to set up the effects on the
Software Instrument to get a realistic sound: something that sounds
like the guitar playing in The Middle, by Jimmy Eat World. I am having
a real hard time getting that crisp and powerful sound, and it just
ends up sounding noisy and there's a lot of disharmony. Can someone
help me/tell me what effects to use to achieve a similar sound?

Another thing: I don't have any Jam Packs nor do I have any money to
purchase them; so I'll need to be able to get that sound with the
stock instruments only.

Help would be much appreciated! Thank you!
