Wampler - Leviathan Fuzz
I'm quite curious about this one too and I'm still looking to find one for cheap locally, which so far hasn't been fruitful.

My guess is a transistor boost like the fat side of Velvet fuzz into a BMP IC big muff-like inverting clipping stage with the single clipping pair followed by a baxandall EQ. Perhaps the upper dual opamp is for buffered vref, it looks like only one half is used.
<edit>Having looked again at the number of caps, it's maybe a bit more complex than i have painted it. Would love to see this traced, especially since it is no longer made (unicorn Ge diode shortage?).

Maybe a jfet buffer into a 2 band gyrator between a hard clipping non inv stage and a flat booster? Or perhaps the jfet is last and its set for a slight boost as opposed to a buffer. I have no idea. I think ill buy one and trace it , because at this point its borderline obsession .
