I think an EQ pedal is a decent place to start.

I mean you can use it as a "tailored" boost so you can try some different curves out

"brighter" is pretty well defined, but "bigger" is a bit more abstract so the solution isn't as clear cut

with boosting, if you are doing it before a dirty amp, you aren't just going to change volume, but the tone as well so having a little EQ option to tweak that can be helpful.

 

also remember if you are hearing it in multitrack recorded music. they can alter things in the mixdown so it's a bit of an illusion

If you want to experiment with an EQ pedal, you can do so inexpensively with a Danelectro Fish & Chips. They work great as a boost too, and they're very inexpensive. Lots of folks here own / use them - including me.
