This happens on singlecuts/les pauls too haha.I like the Strat position. The only problem I've had sometimes is that I hit it so hard that the plastic cap goes flying. And guess where it goes? To the same Bermuda Triangle of the lost picks
The good news is that those rotary switches are gone from the current models. I reckon they finally came up with a lever switch that could give them the right combination of settings. The position is still, uh, not great if you have a trem.The worst has to be the rotary switch on some PRS guitars. Not only is the rotary switch choice odd, but it's way the hell behind the bridge. Some folks like it, but it's not for me. Glad to see they've moved to mostly toggle and blade switches these days.
I think a lot of designs, such as the Les Paul, were just never improved on. Many manufacturers place the toggle where it is aesthetically pleasing.
Form should always follow function.

Nice Fiddle! What brand?I like it there, it's out of the way yet eminently reachable, so I can just slap at it and get what I want. FWIW I never use the middle position on a 3-way toggle. Just don't enjoy that sound. When I did a Tele-like guitar, guess what I did for the switch?
That looks like a Thorn. Ron Thorn is a highly regarded builder. He no longer makes guitars under his own name and is now a master builder with the Fender custom shop.Nice Fiddle! What brand?
