Gary...the mini switch next to the 5 way on my Strat turns on the neck pickup when the 5 way is in position 1 (bridge P/U on). This provides a really nice sound; some people say it sounds like a Tele. It can also turn on the neck pick up in position 2, which activates all 3 pickups simultaneously. I don't use that position very much. Also, not visible, I have a jumper on the 5 way to add the tone control to the bridge pickup. Both of these modifications were very simple; you can search this forum or Google for instructions on hoe to do them.
