I believe, but welcome corrections.
1984 Morris / Moridaira VX-45R copy of the Vantage, Washburn Eagle, Ibanez Artist, Westbury and Aria Pro II Cardinal. Has Super Distortions (Dimarzio ?) that measure 11.84 and 6.07. Paint cracks and nicks as shown. Real Cool Case is Included

Just found this on wiki;  The Moridaira-made Lotus guitars are the rarest and hardest to find as Lotus/Morris made them at most for only 2–3 years. These guitars all are solid-bodied and were made in the same factory as Tokai. There are only 3 models that are known to have come from Lotus/Morris:
  1. The Lotus L670B (a direct copy of the 1980-1982/3 Fender "Bullet"—MIA and MIJ, but not MIK) other than having switches instead of buttons, a differentheadstock shape, a solid body and the same pickups. There were no letters on the headstock.
  2. The Lotus Vantage copy (Washburn Eagle, Aria Pro II Cardinal series, or Ibanez Artist) double cutaway (batwing) guitar with a solid body, 3 per side tuners on headstock, rosewood fingerboard with brass inlays, brass nut and neck-through construction (though there may have been a bolt-on model). This was usually finished in emerald green, polished mahogany or stained blue/white breadboard style and occasionally gloss white with 2 exposed humbucker pickups.
  3. A more conventional Gibson Les Paul copy, usually only seen in gloss black or tobacco burst. These were neck through with hardware similar to their double-cutaway Vantage copy.

These three models are easily on a par with the Matsumoku-made Westbury and the high-end neck-through Vantage guitars.

Lotus started with the elite league of Japanese craftsmen and initially made excellent Morris-branded guitars, but trying to keep up with the heavyweights such as Matsumoku Aria Pro II and Fuji-Gen Gakki Ibanez was difficult. Mismanagement and, especially, the inability to market their initial superb-quality guitars soon had Lotus' owners scrambling for cheaper labor, ending in India with poor quality and eventually no takers for their product, as Chinese and Indonesian guitar producers stepped up with instruments of comparable quality at similar prices.
