The only time I've had problems with a switch in that location has been when there's also a tremolo and you go to dive it . . . sometimes it's possible to hit the switch. You would have to be really wild with your picking to accidentally hit that thing.Join me in the fight against muscular atrophy!
Originally posted by Douglas AdamsThis planet has - or rather had - a problem, which was this: most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movements of small green pieces of paper, which is odd because on the whole it wasn't the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy.

Ergonomically, I think it’s a dumb location. Swing your hand across the guitar like you’re strumming a chord, and the placements used on Les Pauls, Strats, Teles, and most others make a lot of sense. If the lower bout works for you, go for it.
Off topic, my favorite has turned out to be the switch on my Music Man John Petrucci. You can reach it by barely moving your picking hand, but I never bump it, either.“I can play the hell out of a riff. The rest of it’s all bulls**t anyway,” Gary Holt

It isn't a whole lot different than the location of the switch on an LP. And I like that location better than some guitars that have the switch below the knobs.Administrator of the SDUGF
