Hey Hugh,
 
It's cool if it works for you.
 
I believe Stanley Clarke has his neck pickup so high, it becomes his thumb rest while playing.  
 
Peace and Love,
 
Hal-

It's not working for me. It's something I've been meaning to do. Your thread actually made me think of it again....

I'm guessing this is not that unusual.

I don't use thumb rests . I use the side of my thumb to mute and pluck  with along with three fingers on my right hand. Most of the time very close to the bridge.
