Hi, I got this case years ago with a Gibson ES-225. I was told (and it looks like) it’s for a Guild Starfire; that would seem to make sense as the 225 was a little too short to fit the case well and I think a Starfire is larger? I don’t have the interior dimensions handy but from what I recall it’s around 17” at the widest part of the bout and it’s definitely for a slim archtop. Any info would be super welcome!

If the widest part of the lower bout is really 17" on the inside of the case then it could be a Guild Duane Eddy case.
