You need to get three or four patches you like and start working on playing. Just like an acoustic, an electric has to be practiced on until it becomes an extension of your body.

I would suggest something like recording your acoustic guitar and learning to solo over the top.
I mostly think of electric guitar as an ensemble instrument rather than a standalone instrument. Even if I could play Jimi Hendrix or Led Zep riffs and solos perfectly I would take little pleasure from playing those pieces without the band backing sound. I create my own backing tracks in Logic Pro X and then practice my electric guitar playing over a backing track. It works for me anyway. Once I have a rhythm and bass laid down it's time to play something "pretty" on the electric. It's a different mind set from solo acoustic guitar.

I'm just in a weird place right now with electric. I'm enjoying acoustic so much, and even if I got the chance to gig again, I don't know that I would play electric. |

There's no guitar music that can be played on acoustic and yet not on electric. The electric guitar is capable of playing whatever the hands holding it can conceive of playing; solo material or ensemble included.
