Found another pic on ebay. This one is just a little clearer. I'd guess a BSIAB with better EQ as well.

its 3 stages like the bsiab,last one is also mu amp,several snubber caps to tame highs, then a high pass for bass control and active mid(freq shifting done with gyrator with different caps,2n5089 tranny) and treble eq,last stage with opamp
great sounding pedal

is True, the sound is like Bsiab or pinnacle, but noticeably improved!
besides the eq is fantastic.
as I remove the black epoxi, to see the circuit and components?
