Toggle switch question(for soloing)

when soloing do you guys flip your toggle switch to the neck pick-up? and use all the pick-ups when playing chords?

I definitely do that, ocassionally I also just use the neck puckup for some parts even if i play chords, it how it all sounds together.

depends on what I'm doing. Personally I like the bridge pickups for leads best, as they generate the best pinch harmonics, but for some songs I'll use the neck pickups.
