ShaunC 0 Report post Posted September 21, 2020 (edited) Hi all, Going to put this case up for sale but want to describe it accurately. Was a gift and bought separate from my guitar so other than knowing it's a used Gibson original, have no idea of its age. Any clues in the photos? Help appreciated.

jdgm 858 Report post Posted November 2, 2020 They started using these in the late 80s AFAIK. Think they were made by TKL. Here is an old thread on it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bluenotesharp 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2020 Late 80’s up to 1990 has USA under Gibson. Late 70’s early 80’s and modern ones now just say Gibson or Gibson gear. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grog 56 Report post Posted November 20, 2020 It looks identical to the case my 2015 Les Paul Studio Deluxe came in.......... They were brown with pinkish lining when they started using these cases. Then for a number of years they were black with mostly white linings, (I have one with grey lining). This is the next version used for guitars made in Nashville. The Memphis made guitars were in similar cases but the logo & interior were slightly different. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
