Greetings all -

I've got a De Cuir bass case, I've stored my 4001 in it for years. The lining of the case is a bright blue.... and I'm curious about the era it might have been from?

Does anyone know about these cases?

When RIC might have used them?

thanks

Richard

Richard- The imprint on the interior of the lid looks more like a mid '70s, early '80s Guild bridge, like the B301 or B302.
I could be very wrong here...
Case looks mid late '70s possibly early '80s.

Agreed. Very few brands did "formed" interiors (i.e. more than just a square area) before the late 1970s.
