Is this a real Fender case ???????

I won this Hohner 75 MIJ knockoff from evilbay.
It is advertised with a real Fender case. I thought all those cases came with an embosed Fender Emblem riveted on the case??

Besides that the pickups sound like ther'e on their way out, The neck is really nice on this thing though..

All the screws are rusted on the front also..

It doesn't look real to me. The latches are right but the interior looks off. Maybe it is an old vintage case, but the case interior color doesn't look like a vintage Fender case. Also the accessory compartment looks off.

Fender should be orange/reddish. Blue interior/black tolex says to me that it's a Rickenbackercase from the seventies.

Mr Fingers is probably right. It does look like a Ric case.
