I don't even try to understand a Jag (I do know the slider switches pick the pickups in all sorts of weird combinations). But on the JM the slider switch is the rhythm/lead switch. When it is in the lead position, the guitar functions like you'd expect. The pickup selector and big volume and tone pots all work normally. When the slider is in the rhythm position, those controls do not work. Instead, the neck pickup is selected for a mellow, "rhythm," sound and the small black roller knobs are used for vol. and tone. The idea is that you preset the rhythm controls and then easily switch back and forth between good rhythm tone and lead tone.
