No... my point has always been, it's much too HARD to make one as great as the factory ones. Why bother making excrementally bad ones when better ones already exist?

I've got decent emulation chops, and even I don't want to try doing more than assembling from existing great styles and altering the odd note or push here and there.

The point isn't that you can MAKE them. The point is, can you make them as good as the factory ones? If not, don't waste your time. Plenty of other things to work on (like the right changes, for instance!)...
