buy a small mixer (like the behringer 602A), you can run multiple instruments into that, and then have one line out to the pedal board.

the 802a is a better deal imho... i was going to buy the 602a, but ended up paying another 20 bucks for the 802a. I'm extremely happy with it.

You could always...unplug your electric and plug the acoustic in? That's the old school method.

You could buy an A/B box and run one line into it from the pedal board and then one line from the box to the PA and the other line from the box to the amp. Then when you switch guitars you just hit the button on the A/B box and you're all set.
