From the post

The White Light is based on the MXR Distortion +/DOD 250 circuit, but with some modernization and improvements. There's an added tone control called "Weight" and the toggle switch adds compression by adding an extra germanium clipping stage. The board is laid out for solder-side mounted right angle PCB pots or you could use long leg right angle PCB pots and mount them from the component side of the board.
