SS...

I'm not sure what you mean by "advice on the switch"

1. Switch it on...

2. Make sure you have an amp...

In case you don't understand the controls -

Volume Control

The Volume Control allows you to control the volume level of the instrument.

Tone Controls

The Tone Controls allow you to modify the instruments tonal characteristics. With the tone knob in the full clockwise position, a brighter toe is achieved. Rotating the knob counterclockwise gradually filters off the high frequencies, moving the sound from bright to mellow.

The one next to the Volume Control is for the Neck pickup. The bottom one is for the Middle pickup.

5-way switch

Postion 5 is towards the neck.

Position 1. Bridge Pickup
Position 2. Bridge and Middle Pickup
Position 3. Middle Pickup
Position 4. Middle and Neck Pickup
Position 5. Neck Pickup

As for switching from acoustic to electric - that's hard for me to say. I'm re-learning after about 20+ years away from playing - so to me it's like I'm starting from scratch.

Hope this helps.
