Here's my take on the Mountain Oyster Boost.
Don't have much to add to what's been said in previous build reports, it really makes stuff shines as a boost/dirty boost, with enough grit to hold its own.
I particularly found it paired well with my main low/mid gain OD (ModèleB/Barbershop).
Went with a 77 hfe MP35 because that's what I had on hand, and it sounds great to my (not super picky) ears.

Went with the French name for the fine delicacy the pedal is named for, as I liked the sound of it. Had to flex the pot a bit inwards, as I'm a sucker for those big MXR knobs on 2-knobs pedals and didn't want them to overreach.
And finally, a big shout-out to @Chuck D. Bones and @cooder for this circuit/board and to @fig for having provided it to me!
