I've been confused about thumb placement from day one. Every lesson I've seen emphasizes placing your thumb on the back of the neck, but I've never seen a pro guitarist play that way. Ever.

For those of you that switch back and forth from the back of the neck to the wrap-around position, how did you learn which position to use at what time? Did it just come naturally after playing for a while, or were you taught different positions for specific chords?
