Detman recently showed us how to build that master volume switch, which was a great idea. Det, do you or anybody else out there have an example of an AB or ABY box that you've built yourselves? The only one's I've seen (at the usual sites) seem to be way over priced for what they do. I was hoping that one of these amp switchers could be built at home fairly simply and cheaply. Thanks for your replies.
Actually, I have one built at home. It wasn't a switching A-B box however...it was more of a splitter.
I actually removed the A-B (splitter) box wiring and jacks from the box I used for the "Volume Box".
I couldn't find a usage for the A-B box since the likelyhood of me running two amps at the same time was verrrrrry low.
If you like, I can take some pics of the wiring for you and post them over the weekend.

I looked online and found a great schematic for you!
You can use pretty much anything for the box. I saw someone using a caramel popcorn bucket for a tremolo effect once
Ideally you want a full metal box, or you might need to shield the inside if there's any noise.
If you want to build a fancy one with lights and such...use this schematic.
