alot of times i will turn my middle pos tone all the way off and put it in pos.2 between my duncan sh-6 and stock mid pickup this gives it a nice thick tone that is great for rythm on the distortion. but aside from that they are all usually wide open unless im clean on my bridge then i roll down to 8 on the vol

I like my tone like my women. Full round bottom, sweet and clean but can get as dirty as I desire.

A lot of my Strats have a TBX in the 2nd control so I use that on 5 and then 10. Sometimes when I want the silky smooth fuzz with echo I will turn the tone to 2 on the neck pickup. I have been experimenting with using a Tele bridge pickup with the tone on 2 with distortion for a nice crunch. A lot of the time just wide open....

+1 I always tune my amp as good as I can possibly get it sounding wide open and then roll back the volume on my guitar. My tone is usually around 6 but it really depends on what strat im using and pick up i play alot in between bridge and mid so.
