Were electro guitar cases different (in this case brown) or did they get the same cases as rickenbacker guitars generally?

I doubt that that one is a RIC case; kind of generic looking it seems to me. In any event, it looks nice.

That's what i was thinking but there's so little i could find about electro's. The other thing I thought was odd was they mention, or infer it fits a 320. Maybe they just threw "Electro" out there because it's relative.

That is absolutely an Electro case. All Electros that I've seen came with the same style case. Including my ex ES-16.

In fact, many "student model" Rics all had this brown case (including many 425/450 guitars).

My Electro lap steel came in a brown case too.

Those are also cases for Ryders. I don't have a picture of my Ryder 1000 in its case, but it's a very short brown one.

BTW, I had e-mailed the seller about the case being more likely an Electro or Ryder case, rather than a 320 case.
