There is a local Craigslist ad for a Charvel TX Custom [at least that is what I think it is] for $250 or OBO. It looks like a cool guitar, but I really don't know much about them. Based off my research, it seems that the TX Custom was an early 90s model with a S/S/S configuration and a 5 way switch. I know this is an import, but I don't know exactly what country it was manufactured in. Once again research suggests it was made in Japan [which is a big bonus]. There is one thing that has me thinking that it isn't a TX custom. Every picture I have seen says shows on the headstock "TX Custom" after the Charvel logo, this one does not have that. However, everything else seems to match

I was thinking about unloading a guitar [my yamaha RGX620Z] to fund this guitar. Do you guys think that is a wise decision? I like my RGX620Z, but it sees the least amount of play time of my guitars, where my Tele gets a good portion.

Also, this is the listing... Can someone confirm that it is a TX Custom?

yeah that's a TX for sure. Not sure about the "Custom" part... I don't remember what the differences were. They are indeed MIJ and they're great guitars. I used to have a CX that was really nice.

I respect your opinion Billy... Do you think that selling my Yamaha RGX620Z to fund it would be a good decision?

The more I look at it, the more I want it. I wonder if I can get this for two bills...

No. I've owned that Yamaha also and it's a much better guitar than the CX/TX IMHO.

So much truth.

Alright guys... That settles it for me... Thanks for your input!
