Quality switch
I use this for live gigs when using two amps, makes life a lot easier. The LED's make it very clear to what amps are active. Very good product.

Switchblade plus
Just like the TARDIS, the Switchblade + is smaller on the outside. Very small indeed. Some might find it too small - I'd say try it first. It is robustly built in the typical EH die-cast case, with bright LEDs and conveniently placed foot switches and promptly labelled ins and outs.
The Switchblade is a channel selector - it sends the input signal to channel A, B, or both. There's a tuner output as well - if you don't need to connect a tuner, you can use this to output a separate channel; however, be warned that it bypasses the Switchblade and cannot be switched on or off.
The left foot switch toggles between output A and B. The right switch runs both outputs in parallel. When the right foot switch is engaged, the left one is disabled, which makes sense.
The unit is completely passive and works without electricity. The LEDs, though, need juice to show what's on and what's off. They consume so little that a 9V battery should last ages: EH, however, have added a DC-in socket. Nice touch, but unnecessary.
The Switchblade is true bypass, as you would expect from a product of this type.
They say it works if you reverse it (channel A and B become inputs, and the input becomes an output) but I haven't tried it.
On the whole, Switchblade + turned out exactly as I'd imagined. It isn't a unique product but does what it says on the tin and does it well. Besides, it is priced very reasonably. Recommended.

Reliable and Functional
This is exactly what a utility pedal should be like. It is reliable and functional. I use it to switch between effects. Line A goes into my multi effects board, and Line B goes through my stomp boxes. Both of which finally go into the same amp. This lets me set a loop on one of the lines, and play over it on the other.
There are few disadvantages to having such a pedal, except
perhaps the space required.
The advantages are those, outlined above.
The Value for money is very good, and I would not be without one now.

1 word: AWESOME!!!
I play in a duo/alternative rock band. Bought this so split my guitar to two amps my normal guitar amp with out A then to a Bass amp with out B. It works like a charm! I can choose to have both amps running at the same time or one at a time. Very cool solid pedal. I love Electro Harmonix gear. Came with a cool sticker too.

A minor miracle
This small pedal may change how you approach your sound on either bass or on guitar. Given that there are two outputs and an either / or / altogether option, rigging this up could not be more fun. It's simple, easy to use and built like a tank,

Superb from Electro Harmonix
Very pleased with this pedal, sturdy design and build, a great addition to my pedal board. In particular, the feature to have A+B was the reason I bought this. Nice clean sound through it, simple to use, small enough to fit on my board without too much hassle. Switches are decently spaced too.

EXH - quality as you would expect
Bought this for a variety of purposes, to switch between bass amps in one rig setup - and also for switching between a guitar and a harmonica mic into a valve amp in another setup.
Does both these jobs brilliantly. Really simple to use pedal, built like a tank and the lights make it really easy to know what you are doing with it.

Essential
If you have a big board, like to experiment or just a guitarist who uses more than the one amp then you'd be crazy not to have one of these 10/10
