 couldn't you just rig up a DPDT with two jacks and ground the jacks with 1meg resistors? or do you find that it can still pop a good deal?

 There is a schematic at the fulltone site in the tech tips and tricks link.

fulltone

I have never built this so I can't comment on quiet.

 That Fulltone box is the simplest and most transparent way to do an A/B box.

I don't know if it will pop or not.

One cool thing about it is: even if your 9v battery dies, the A/B function still works--you just won't have a lit LED.

 I have a couple of Morley A-B-Y boxes that are quiet with no pop at all. I picked them up on e-bay, pretty cheap.

 I'll let you know how it works. I am going to wait til the 1st of the year to place an order with Doug(let him work on his building as the weather here the last couple of days has been great).

 Just an update:
I finally built the fulltone A B box. It works great without any popping at all.
