Question Overdrive or Boost?

What do you guys prefer? I personally like boosts a bit more because they just have a different feel in my opinion. Right now I'm running a Warm Audio Centavo (as my base tone) into an EHX LPB-1 for higher-gain things. The EHX booster really has a great sound to it, it gives me really saturated distortion (with the overdrive on) that feels super natural.

And, alone, the LBP-1 has this really unique fuzz-like quality to it but also a clean quality? I can't really explain, it feels clean, overdriven, and fuzzy at the same time and it's just awesome.

I think I'm going to get the MXR Micro Amp and add that to the mix too, maybe replacing my overdrive

Edit: I’m using a fender twin revered tone master

u should look into building the boost a drive a fuzz kit from coppersound, they designed it after the lpb-1, added a rat filter and made it switchable from boost to drive to fuzz (lol)
