Sign in to disble this ad
I attempted to do a search but as you all know it's a bit hard to search for things with short words. 
Basically I'm looking for an A/B box because I plan on using two basses and running them into a single amp. I assume this is what I would need to swap from one bass to another on the fly between songs without having to unplug and plug up when switching?
Just wondering if there are any basic A/B boxes out there that you folks could suggest to me. I want something transparent and that will do the job hopefully without needing an addtional power supply.
thanks! |

Micro A/B. It's like 1"x1". It's only $30-ish, too. |

I just bought one new or I'd be on it. Thought I'd pass the deal along.
