Moridaira

The  Guitar company has been building quality handcrafted instruments in Nagano, Japan for a long time. Mr. Toshio Moridaira, the founder, was the first distributor in Japan to carry both  and  lines. In 1964, due to his working relationship with Gibson, Toshio was able to visit the Gibson factory in Kalamazoo, Michigan. An employee at Gibson nicknamed him “Mori” at that time. In 1967, he founded the  company.

He named it Morris, taken from the nickname given to him a while back. Morris produced copies of dreadnought and small jumbo models based on Martin and Gibson designs. To this day, Moridaira’s main production are Morris acoustic guitars. 

The factory produced high-quality guitars, including  badged guitars which were imported into England by Rose Morris. Moridaira also produced badged guitars for  including Coronado, Futurama, , Lotus, Madcat and Sakai.
