Not sure about your comment about 82z more for experienced players. I'm just an amateur jazz player, not even college level. I play-tested both the 62 and 82z a decade ago, felt a huge difference and proceeded to select and purchase the 82z. If anything the customz was tons easier to play and sound. I guess it did play bright, so i did swap my ligature to darken the tone. But that was it. I've gigged a bunch and audiences generally loved the playing. So.. yeah, I don't see what's so difficult about playing the customz at all. Love it.
I played a 62 tenor for 6 months, but, from the first notes I played on the 82II, it just seemed to have a more complex tone. It took me a few months of daily playing to make the horn "mine", but I've had it for 6 years now and haven't regretted trading up. (And it goes longer between repair/tune-ups than the 62.)

Also have a Purple Logo, with a V1 gold laquered and a silver plated G1 Neck, Sounds awesome🤩
Just get a purple logo 62 it plays just as good as an 82Z
82 Z . So versatile. My horn for last 10 plus years.
Yts 62s purple logo’ so good
82 II nd version what is the diffrence
Is 62 is enough for a professional playing? I mean classical and jazz .
Without a doubt, it's a very solid horn with loads of qualities that any pro player would want.
See your points, but sticking to my 62, BTW, even w/o purple logo it is great.
I have a 62 02, european name. With a Meyer HR mpc and a filed 2.5 reed you forgot to go to sleep !
62!
What mouthpiece did you say you used?
