Is it the correct case for that era ? I think the early case have purple plush and the later have red plush ? I'm right or wrong ?

Default G-3

Yeah, another one of those nice red ones......

very nice bass - the serial number clearly shows it to be late '82 though

This is right towards the end of the run - and I don't think you can generalise too much about cases at this point. They were using up whatever they had.

The great condition suggests it hasn't spent too long out of its case - i'd say it was original
