DGT PICKUPS TCI?

Am I unpolite, when I give an answer, that should fill a gap on a certain knowledge? [Rhetoric question. And further more, mistreated scorpions don't hesitate to use deliberated their poisonous sting to re-attac.]
I would have been fully snarky by stating only: "Hey, invest some monents in searching the world wide web and this forum before asking others to do for you!".
To share that answer above I didn't unveil secret steams of a witch's bowl, but dropped a few sel tectors in a search engine - which can be proceeded by anybody.

To accuse me being rude is one thing, but what was your constructive commitment in this regard of providing a reply on his question? And giving applause to the accuse is a short win, too. Aswell no worthwhile commitment for the thread opener.
Maybe I wasn't right with 2020, or at all, which would have required correction.
And maybe the demand on "readings" isn't enough fulfilled.
Hence: There could be more to do for you than pointing at me only, couldn't it?

To show more from my snarky side: I wasn't capable to find literal readings like a test in a guitar magazine, but this forum offers an own thread on that topic:
https://forums.prsguitars.com/threads/ngd-2020-dgt-with-tci-pickups.42181/ (Which proves me right in terms of the date 2020.)

And some watchings/listenings:

Being helpful and answering the question, great…you still sound like a dick. Maybe he just wanted to interact on the forum. There’s plenty of drivel on here. Who cares about a repeat question?
 
Does anybody know if the DGT pickups were ever TCI?

Does anybody have readings of dgt tci pickups ?

Thanks
All current American made guitars have the TCI process. So yes, the DGT pickups are TCI. From the information posted above, it would seem that took effect in 2020. They are great sounding guitars. I never cared for the neck carve, so it always bums me out a little that I won’t get one. I try them occasionally, but they just aren’t fun for me to play. I hope you find one that you can enjoy.

right on mate (how old does saying that make me).

If we didn’t have repeat questions, we wouldn’t have a lot to talk about. And honestly, I would rather get fresh answers from a known source than old beliefs from a random source.
 
I love and respect all the people who posted in this thread.

I say stuff like "google is your friend" from time to time. It's kind of a gentle tease. I don't think it's all that snarky.

It's certain that I'm a dick, regardless, but Maerti513 is a truly good guy.

I second this.

And @László you’re not a d!ck, you’re a Leslie.
 
Darn, are we TGP now? Gentleman; curtsy, please

Edit; forum search system sucks, FWIW
Hello my good lizard. I do not mean to correct you...only to inquire if perhaps you meant courtesy, although I do enjoy the thought of us forumites engaging in this physical gesture of politeness and respect (curtsy).

A curtsy to you, reptilian axe slinger.

Its hard to search for an S2-anything on the forum, I do concur.

Yeah, but it’s not the message. It’s the condescending delivery. Focker, out.

Yeah that, I'm a bit foreigner. 100% Multicultural Bastard.

Hate to point out, but you misspelt "gold". I'm a Gold Lizard, my comrade. Yet, still yours

I blame British pronunciation for all my spelling mistakes. Its like why Gloucester is Gloster, yet Manchester is not Manster? Why Worcestershire Sauce is not prenounced Wash-Your-Sister-Sauce, but simply Wooster Sauce? It's faken schewpid, innit?

I'm about to spoil everyone's fun with - you bet - another Unwanted History Lesson!!

The Romans ruled Britain for roughly 350+ years. They built camps for their legions stationed there. A legionary was expected to serve for 25 years, so they were often around for a long time. Many serving in the legions were locals; the attraction for them was Roman citizenship at the end of service, which entitled them to some significant perks.

Cities arose around these camps to trade with, and supply the legions. Legionaries were forbidden to marry (that changed later on), but they had common law wives and kids where they served, who also lived in these cities. So the populations grew.

Latin for 'camp' is 'castra'. UK cities ending in 'cester, 'caster' and 'chester' are cities that got their beginnings near these camps. So why are these place name endings pronounced differently?

When the Romans left, the Angles started arriving, as did the Saxons, the Jutes, and later the Danes. These, in addition to the Romano-British, who spoke Latin at first, and Brythonic (a Celtic language) later. The Welsh are largely the descendants of the Romano-British, who were eventually squeezed out much of what's now England proper by the Germanic peoples. 'Welsh' was Old Germanic for 'outsider'. They spoke mostly Brythonic by that time.

In fact, if you want to know how long dialects last, there were people still speaking Brythonic dialects in East Anglia's fens, Cornwall, and Cumbria until quite recently.

In parts of Western Britain, people retained a Latin-based culture until as late as the 6th or 7th century.

As you'd imagine, the Angles, the Saxons, the Jutes, and the Danes had separate dialects and languages. They lived in their own places and stuck to their own people.

The West Saxons settled in Wessex, hence the name; The South Saxons in...you guessed it, Sussex; the Danes settled in what was called the Danelaw (which had separate laws from the Anglo-Saxon laws); the Northumbrians had their own kingdom but I don't remember offhand which tribe settled there.

Some, like the Scots, originally lived in Ireland and migrated to Scotland, displacing the Picts, who were the original inhabitants.

Even as they adopted Old English, the pronunciation of words varied.

What's important for purposes of this little history lesson is that these tribes all settled in different parts of what is now the UK. And in each place they set up their own kingdoms. While the place names didn't always change, the pronunciation often did.

But hell, being from the Midwest, I pronounce 'Boston', 'Bawstin'. Lots of Easterners pronounce it 'Bahstin'. It's just an example - back then most people didn't travel, and families pretty much kept to where they were born for many centuries. There simply wasn't an opportunity to develop the 'standard pronunciation' that radio, films and TV gave us.

Accents and pronunciation of words develop this way. The UK has a lot of them!

End of history lesson. ;)

I will remind my British friends who to be grateful to, for Bicester not simply being called Bi, the next time when they complain them Romans are taking their jobs

The Romans had a serious history of big-time job creation!

Unfortunately, most jobs had the job title 'slave'.

Society now calls its slaves 'employees' and treats them marginally better.

By the way, my job title is 'serf'. 😂
