I think most players keep it on 100%.
Actually, I dont think i've ever even used the toneknob on any guitar i've had. -------------------- Guitars: Schecter Stiletto Classic, Jackson SLSMG, Ibanez RG-380 Japan, Gibson Les Paul Studio

Yeah,I believe 100% is most often nowdays.
This tone pot had more use back in the days when amps where pretty simple and there where no pedals,preamp,external EQs to do all sound tweaking. But still this pot might be useful sometimes, to get some nice effects like ala Santana muddy tone etc. The only problem with tone pot on guitar is that it kills too much of signal attack as well the highs when you turn it to lower value. -------------------- Youtube

I use it a bit as well. About 6-10, specially the bridge and middle tone.

I usually keep it a bit lower than 100%, and don't use it much really.

Point with tone knob is this,
100% means full sound spectrum from your guitar/pickups. That is how your guitar sounds in total. If you wanna less highs I suggest cutting it somewhere else, amp EQs,preamp,pedal or whatever, tone pot is more like a filter,not typical EQ tool. -------------------- Youtube

Yep, full on most of the time. I use it sometimes, but only when I have a guitar with good pots. The cheap ones really don't do much.
