Yeah, its a shame that it only runs on batteries, but it's still a great little pedal. I'm a touring musician, and I've used mine for about 200 shows. After 3.5 years it has just now developed a short in the output. It is small enough to fit in any pedal board configuration and durable enough to last for years. I've already sent in a replacement order.

I bougtht this pedal to run a Taylor T5 between a Carvin acoustic amp and Traynor 50 watt tube amp. It seemed to work ok at first, but changing batteries if you forget to disconnect the input is a pain. Far worse, it now seems to generate a horrible buzz or whine that is simply unacceptable. I always thought Boss was bulletproof, but this thing didn't cut it.

Comments about Boss AB-2 2-Way Selector Pedal:
I bought this unit to be able to switch quickly between electric and acoustic guitars, so it performs this function well. Unfortunately , it runs on 2- 1.5 volt AA cells, so you must have an extra set of batteries available as well as a Phillips screwdriver to change them. It would be better if it could be powered by 9V A.C adapter. I don't detect much noise/hum generated by it. but I've mostly used it in low-gain settings.

Comments about Boss AB-2 2-Way Selector Pedal:
I have used this pedal to swtich between amps and instruments and, it functions beautifully. Although I mainly use it for starting and stopping my drum machine, it works perfectly for this function in a live performance. I'm not too concerned about it being battery powered because I really don't like the wall wart transformers anyway. I own an LR Baggs para acoustic DI that is battery powered only and, I wouldn't have it any other way. Very well made and functions just for what I need, no noise, not very expensive, Highly recommended.
Comments about Boss AB-2 2-Way Selector Pedal:
Just what I needed to switch between two guitars without unplugging.
Works great - love the LED indicators.
Comments about Boss AB-2 2-Way Selector Pedal:
I use mine to switch between two basses, normally fretted to fretless. It works great for this. batteries are a bummer, and hard to change, nothing else on stage uses AAAs. Still a great unit, though a little pricey for me. I bought mine used.

I have owned this sweet puppy for a little over a year and it is still kickin just as good as day one! I have used it on stage about 90 times and also in the studio. I use it to switch between my pedals, just one stomp and I can go from clean to heavy...perfect!!!
Comments about Boss AB-2 2-Way Selector Pedal:
I use this pedal to switch between my tele and my LP live. I've had it for a few weeks now, so it's been through about six gigs thus far, and so far so good. I haven't had any issues, and there's no bleed through from the other guitar when one is selected. It's also ruggedly constructed and feels like it will last a while...and if it ever does break I will definitely be buying a new one. The only reason I gave it a 3.5 on features is because it doesn't have a spot for a power supply. buying batteries and even just keeping batteries charged kind of annoys me....I'd rather just plug it in....but for the price I can't really complain.
Comments about Boss AB-2 2-Way Selector Pedal:
I recieved mine through mail order a couple of days ago. My only complaint is it has to run off batteries only, which I can live with. There is some slight bleed over, but you really have to listen for it. This unit is really worth the money and it also seems very well constructed.
Comments about Boss AB-2 2-Way Selector Pedal:
Well, I got it used through a music store and am not regreting it a mintue. I'm using my Epiphone Semi-Acc to switch from Amp to DI-Box to play it accousticly. It work great. I dont mind the shape at all, the only thing is that you have to run it on bateries. But it is not a big deal. This is a great little fellow, robust and faithful.
