Built 2x Pedalpcb Pauper aka Analogman Prince of Tone clones. Great sounding overdrive pedals. Had solder problems with the relic one and left out the 3 way toggle switch. The royal one is actually my favourite drive pedal.

@Manuel Ammon Astounding and beautiful work as always. Very interesting relic job!

I had the opportunity to A/B my Pauper with a real P-O-T. Very satisfied with overall outcome EXCEPT it had noticeably less distortion when the Gain was max'd out. Yes, the Boost/OD/Dist switch as well as internal DIPs were matched on both. Any suggestions as to a component "swap" that would...

I like my Pauper a lot, but wind up using my KOT more. I settled on using BA282's in my Pauper build which sounds different than MA858's to me. I also have a bunch of BAS33 diodes which to me sound more like the MA858/856. I used those in another KOT clone build. You might also like the King's Hand PCB (It's the MBB side of the Duellist). To me the pedal sounds like a "girthier" version of the POT. Very cool pedal as well.
