💙 Vintage OFFSET Guitar Hardshell Case MIJ Matsumoku

Vintage 1970s Made in Japan electric guitar hard case with a black exterior, yellow plush interior, and five-latch construction.

I purchased this hoping to use it but the interior is shaped for an offset-style body and does not fit my guitar correctly, so I am reselling it.

Based on the shape, dimensions, Japanese hardware and comparison with surviving original examples, I think this was for late-1960s/early-1970s Japanese Matsumoku offset guitars such as the Aria 1802T / Epiphone ET-270 family. Compatibility is not guaranteed, so please compare the listed measurements with your instrument.

Approximate interior measurements:

• Overall length: 40.5"
• Upper body area: ~12"
• Waist: ~9.75"
• Lower body area: ~14"
• Depth: 3"

The case has vintage Japanese hardware and a shaped wooden shell rather than a rectangular universal design. It shows normal cosmetic wear from age and use, including scuffs, scratches, and wear to the exterior and hardware. Please review all photos for condition. All latches work.

IMPORTANT: This is an offset-shaped case. Please compare the measurements and interior shape shown in the photos with your guitar before purchasing. I cannot guarantee compatibility with any specific guitar model.

A nice period-looking case for a vintage Japanese or other offset-style electric guitar.

I take great pride in taking the time to carefully and sufficiently package anything I sell and this is reflected in my feedback 🙂. It will ship securely packaged with UPS.
