Need help identifying Alembic bass case


I have this bass case I am thinking of selling. The person I got it from thought it was for an Orion, but was not sure. I have measured it and it is for a 4 string bass that is 47" long overall, not counting any strap pins. The other measurements are in the photo.
Does anyone know for sure what it fits?
Thanks

I think it looks more like an Epic shape myself, BTW, but no longer have one to test fit it into.

David,  where are you located?

Sorry, can't help, I am on the wrong coast.

Hard to tell from the picture - but this looks like an Essence 5 or a Rogue 5/6 case. Is the bottom edge terribly asymmetric?

David, this might be worth a shot... here is the page from the old Club with the body shapes. Maybe try making a full-scale template of the suspects and see which fits best?

Yes, it looks pretty asymmetric. There are also 4 string lines pretty clearly seen in the top half of the case.

ok then likely for a Rogue

I bet on Rogue...

Oddly enough, I was staring at my Yamaha TRB-4P hanging on my bedroom wall last night and got the idea of seeing if it would fit in this case (the TRB does not have a case). It was a little tight but it fit right in there! I just might keep it!

Ha! I was wondering... if it fits a Rogue, might it fit a Tobias I keep loaned out in a gig bag.
