I was in NYC on Monday and stopped to Guitar Center or whatever is called across from Rudy's and played one...very nice but the salesmen did not undertstand the guitar ..I think I figured it out but can someone tell me how to get the electric only sounds out w/o the pedal ??...

The Acoustic side I believe is controlled by the 3 small dials and with the switches up ??

Not sure about the ++ but on my + I keep the recessed button pressed in and the pickup siwtch selector to up. The p/u selector switch works as up - acoustic // middle acoustic and electric // down - electric. This gives me only acoustic. I am pretty sure the ++ is the same but the extra switch chooses the neck/bridge/both. I am currently only using the acoustic side so I am using a mono cable.

Clear as mud? :D

there are 2 mini switches. the one closest to the bridge is the elec selector, down for bridge up for neck, both in the middle. the switch closer to the butt is the elec/both/acoustic switch, elec being down.
stereo/mono button is mono down.
with a mono cable, electric will always work if the switch is down to electric. if you plug in a stereo cable and push the button to the up position, electric will still be on the tip, acoustic on the ring.
