As a force of habit I just use the pick up, and although if I incorporated the floating thumb I'd probably play better I haven't really put much effort into making that transition yet. Right now I'm just comfortable in keeping my thumb on my pick-up. However when I do use floating thumb I do rely on going pack to the pick-up for my low E string. Just makes sense, your thumb has to have something to rest on to be controlled in what you're doing.
