I've had a kill switch since 1994. Here are some audio examples, with no Buckethead covers :)
A little info: defaulting to just using the pickup selector is missing the point: A kill switch is momentary (as opposed to maintained contact) and thus takes half the effort which makes the effect twice as useful. However, using the momentary/normally closed pushbutton seen everywhere is only half the potential that the actual, correct switch can yield. More to come...
Enjoy
