No, like this ...

property strA : "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {""}
set strB to (rest of characters of strA) as text
set strC to (rest of characters of strB) as text
log strC

Setting TIDs to null is NOT optional!

If you're addressing characters, text item delimiters doesn't come into play. The only time you would have to set text item delimiters is if you're addressing text items, which you're not in this situation. It is not only not optional; it is not needed.
