Germanium fuzz built around 4 NOS mil-spec germanium transistors and 1 NOS germanium diode. Transformer-isolated input allows flexible pedalboard placement—solving the typical germanium fuzz problem of needing to be first in the signal chain.

Volume (unity around 10 o'clock depending on pickup output), Boost, Treble, and Bass controls. The transformer isolation means this germanium fuzz works anywhere in the pedal chain, unlike most germanium designs that are position-sensitive.

Named after the Japanese cherry blossom viewing tradition. Delivers fat, smooth, richly textured germanium fuzz. Black anodised aluminium enclosure with pearlised white base, recessed knobs, sloped front, top-mounted jacks. 65mm x 125mm x 53mm, 9V DC.
