Best AB Box (switcher) ?

What's the latest as far as who is the best these days and why. I have been
using a wireless guitar with mute button to switch guitars but it seems to
impede my signal..Thx

An A/B box is a pretty simple thing. It shouldn't affect your tone.
I've used a few (Whirlwind, DOD and homemade) and can't hear a
difference. What's "the best"? I don't know. ToneBone makes a really
expensive one with lots of bells and whistles, but I think it only
lets you switch the output, not the input.

So is true-bypass necessary with an AB Box?

You never really "bypass" and A/B box. Is this whole thing a joke?

Uhhhhhhhhh.....mmmmm.......

It IS true-bypass and nothing more. That's probably the most polite way to
answer this.
