When did PRS go back to the old knobs on the DGT?

I happened to see an ad for a DTG for sale and I thought from the way the ad was worded and the knobs on the guitar that it was an old one from when the model was first released. As I looked at the pictures I saw it was actually a 2024. That caused me to look on Reverb for others and sure enough, they have the old speed knobs on them again. I looked on the PRS site, and sure enough, same thing. I didn't know they did that.

Those are PRS lampshades, not speed knobs, on the image you linked to. It's not really clear, but you can see the "fluted" base, and the flat side segments.

No, those are speed knobs...

First picture is a trick of the camera and does look a little “flutish”, but image two is most definitely “speedie”.

Looks like the same guitar from the figuring in the top.
 
Sure, those are speed knobs, but not in the pic that @JasonE linked to. At least, what I'm seeing when I click that link
I linked the PRS page for the DGT. The big picture at the top shows speed knobs. Look at the center of the knob. You can see the full circles in them. The lampshade knobs also have a black band where the numbers are in them.

Fair enough... next I'll have to check my prescription in my glasses :cool:
 
These are the knobs I need for my 2007 artist package 24. Been searching everywhere and all aftermarket have the lines between the numbers.
