Y Cable

Is there such a thing that would suit this occasion? I have Temple Audio board with one of these modules on:-

My plan is to use one port for my wireless receiver to go into and the other for a guitar lead to go into for the times I don't need to be wireless which is most of the time (some pedals sound better like this). From here on the other side of the module I'm thinking of two male connecters going to one male connecter that goes into my Boss ES 5 switcher. Is there such a Y cable you can recommend and are there any pitfalls I haven't seen in doing this?

Hope you can advise :)

    If you have the wireless receiver output connected to the guitar in parallel, the guitar tone may be very poor because the output impedance of the receiver will load it down. (Depending on how the output stage is configured.)

    You need an A/B box really.

    Ah ok that was my next option I was thinking about.  I just thought I was over engineering it and thought a Y cable was the simpler suggestion and cheapest. I'll go to plan N then. Thanks @ICBM ;
