MOTM

Sorry if this thread has come up before, but does anyone have any 
experience (or wisdom) about modifying (or desdigning) pedal effects as 
modules?

I know there are various modules out there designed to work with guitar 
level signals, but I'm talking about designing guitar effects (fuzz, 
flange, phase, tube OD, etc.) for modular use. I know some modules 
exist as modular recreations of guitar pedals. Metasonix seems to be 
recreating most of their TM line as Euro modules. I also know that a 
lot of basic modules cover and far outdo much of the pedal universe. 
But I'm in love with fuzz pedals, and there's lots I'd like to see in a 
module. I especially love starving a pedal. There's nothing like the 
sound of some pedals running out of juice.

Anyway, the fuzzmodular & fuzzlab projects look interesting. But I'm 
wondering if anything can be bought assembled or in kit form, or if 
it's still a DIY thing?
