apparently, it's "similar to the Supa Fuzz / TB MK-II but a bit different":

Couldn't find a schematic of the reverb section. This (reverb only) unit is supposedly similar:

glad to help. Was interesting reading about the associations with Blackmore and Moody Blues (and what seems to be a super low 10k at the input). Also somebody's comment about how the fuzz mixed with the reverb helped to create something more unique (something like that). Saw this also:

..so I guess (model) 2019 is the bass 20-watter, 2020 is Reverb, 2021 Reverb Fuzz, 2022 guitar 20-watter, and 2023 the (Supa-)wah. Could be a bit confusing searching for these models about now. They probably didn't imagine people would still dig this gear so many years later.

Oh, found another page with close-up perf/strip board pics (incl. one of the bottom)--"on sale" for the paltry sum of 580,000 yen (about USD4400 today) 😮 :
