    I don't think that logo was actually on any guitars. It was probably just used in advertising, I would guess in the early 80's.

      White logos with 6 on a side tuners were Made in Japan guitars 86-89
      Toothpaste logos 90-?
      Black or gold logos with 3 tuners on each side USA Charvel only.

                  There last batch of import Charvels had the black 3/3 logo. (no "Made in USA" underneath. "The Original Hotrod Guitar" with the logo was for advertising.)

                  And the script logos went from 89-around 96.

                  Around 95-96 they were using both script and 6/side logos. Then went back to just the 6/side in 97-ish.
