Title: La Vache, More Volume and gain?

Built a La vache, any way to beef it up with the volume at 1 it's still got unity gain not much of a boost, I need more power!!!

The sunking has spoiled me I think, but anyway how would I tweak it to beef it up?

Try reducing R4 to 100R.

Thanks! I'll try that

possibly increasing R2 may help, but probably not as much as changing R4. you could try something like 3.9M or 4.7M.

this circuit likely works without R2 altogether, i think it's main purpose is temperature compensation.

the 100ohm resistor at R4 is tasty. I dig it!
