If not, perhaps a good idea for any entrepreneurs out there: A 1/4 plug that goes into the footswitch jack on an amp, and gives immediate on/off control (an amp mounted switch or button) without the cord and/or footswitch. Is there such a thing?
Truthfully I’m confused about what you want. What’s wrong with the regular foot switch sitting on top of your amp with the cable dangling at the back out of sight?
You could have a tech make one for you. Personally, I would do as Paul says, well I already do, but if that's no an option make an "L" bracket for the switch, a foot long cable to the jack and mount the L anywhere there's a screw handy near the front. If you can't solder, a tech would charge as much as a universal pedal.
Sweetfootpedals makes some tiny foot switches. No affiliation. It appears he can add options for small up charges and has responded quick to my emails. Edit: just reread op. Without a chord? I guess hack an old garage door transmitter.
Some people just solder a wire to short the plug. Put the plug in or pull the plug out = on/off. I received a couple of these with vintage guitar amps that use RCA plugs for the pedals. Basically it's used to test the tremolo if you don't have a pedal. (Tremolo is normally off on my amps)
Basically, I'm getting a MB Big Bang amp, which has a mute feature that is powered by a footswitch. For me and my setup, it would be easier if this was just a button on the amp...
It would be an easy job for a good amp tech to replace the jack with a switch, and likely just as easily reversible if you want to sell.
Easy enough to wire a latching switch into a 1/4" jack with a short pig tail as well. Obviously somebody has thought of it...unfortunately no longer available. 5pcs Tattoo FOOTLESS Foot Switch Constant Power Pedal Mono Jack 1/4" Replacement Kit Set-in Tattoo accesories from Beauty & Health on Aliexpress.com | Alibaba Group
Looks like the Big Bang foot switch uses a TRS plug as it controls the mute and (EQ2) filter section.

Nice find on the tattoo piece.
Planet waves do a circuit breaker cable, just a cable with a button on the jack that effectively mutes the signal.
I'll just answer you once: Sometimes I play small venues where it's too small to use my pedalboard, and instead use a clip on tuner. For these, the button mute would be handy.
If you're playing that small and you're not into the PA, just wind your master volume down? Or pull the plug half out of the amp on mine will give a clickless mute. If you're taking a break even just turn the amp off. Or as posted elsewhere the planet waves cable with the switch. Or the Neutrik "Silent Cable". Mike
I was looking at those for this thread. I think they are momentary switches. In other words only activated as long you hold the switch. If that works for the OP, Switchcraft makes just the connector/switch. No cable needed.
