Gibson Vintage 1970's L5-S or L6-S Hard Shell Case

As pictured! 3 latches work. Others don't. Ask any questions but I think the pics cover everything.

I'm anticipating that this listing is going to be up for a long time due to the rarity of the Gibson L5-S and even rarer Japanese copies.

NOTE! This case is for the Gibson L5-S or L6-S only! An SG or Les Paul will not fit! The L5-S in the last picture is NOT included!

Edited from an Internet Artificial Intelligence search:

Authentic 1970s Gibson L5-S or L6-S cases with purple lining (often described as maroon or deep purple) typically feature black Tolex exteriors, plush interiors, and are extremely rare. These cases, often with 4 or 5 latches, are known for being lighter than later models but only fit the extremely rare Gibson L5-S. 

Key Features and Identification

• Interior: Deep purple or maroon plush lining, often described as soft "shag" or velour.
• Exterior: Black Tolex with a Gibson logo.
• Era: Predominantly 1970s.
• Latches/Hardware: Usually 4 or 5 latches (some with broken hinge/latch issues due to age).
• Fit: Designed for L5S or L6-S only. 

Common Condition Issues

• Wear: Due to the heavy weight of the L5-S, these cases often have broken hinges, worn Tolex, or damaged handles.
• Functionality: Despite exterior wear, they are sought after for protecting vintage instruments. 

Market Value and Availability Price:

• Extremely rare in good condition, $300-600 if one can be found.
