Teisco six-string bass followed an unusual body shape that was used on one of their guitars. Teisco also produced a six-string bass called TB-64 (or ET-320) in 1964, similar to the Fender Bass VI which was itself an uncommon instrument. TG-64 (guitar version of TB-64 played by Conor Oberst) This is one of the reasons these guitars became popular again during the 90s among many noise artists as a cheaper alternative for the Fender Jaguar or Jazzmaster, which were beginning to attract collector interest. When the strings are attacked behind the bridge, a 3rd bridge sound is created. Many Teisco guitars had a primitive tailed bridge in their extended tail bridges with limited timbre when used in an extended technique. The light weight of this guitar is a bonus to the sonic attributes. He talked the manager into a trade, took the guitar home, rebuilt it and has played it on stage ever since. He has played Teisco guitars since childhood and just before joining Peter Noone in 2001 found this one from the Teisco 1964 line screwed to the wall at a Guitar Center as junk art.

There are two places (pictured) where the tolex is peeling away, but a little glue will fix that. The exterior of the case is only 3.5 inches thick.

Lower area, from bottom edge of storage pocket to bottom of case: 22.5 inches Width across upper bout at an angle (maximum possible width): 12 inches Width straight across upper bout: 11 inches Here are the interior dimension (and keep in mind the thick padding has a "give" of another half inch or so: It holds a Gibson just fine, but as you can see from the leftover space, it's clearly designed for a larger and less symmetrical electric guitar, and one with a longer left (or top) horn - something like a Rickenbacker or maybe the Teisco sharkfin models.
Lift up that neck support and there's a storage pocket below. It has a black textured exterior, three smooth-working chrome latches, black plastic handle reinforced with a chrome steel insert, and a soft electric-blue-velvet padded interior. Most of the other Rick cases, however, seem to be rectangular.
I did a Google search and sure enough someone with a Rickenbacker 325 had their bass in a case that looked very much like this, but with a crushed-orange interior. But he THOUGHT it was an old Rickenbacker bass guitar case. It came with a 1974 Gibson EBO bass guitar (pictured), and the seller said it wasn't the original Gibson case (yeah, I figured that). But the hinges have tiny lettering that says "TOYOGAKKI JAPAN" so that's the only clue what guitar it might have held. There is no brand name obviously painted or printed on the case. Here's a nice old guitar case that will fit unusual shaped guitars, such as some models of Rickenbacker, Teisco, Silvertone, and other guitars.
