    Lotus Telecaster - Japanese or Korean?

    This Lotus is listed near me for a fair price, and my nephew has “telecaster” on his Christmas list, but I’m hesitant to make the drive for it if it’s a Korean guitar.

    Breezy Identification

    Attaching some photos of my breezysound. In case they don't come through, or don't show clearly, my neck heel is stamped 11 =9, and SN is 1019514. The body appears to be 3 pieces, and my bridge is/was chrome plated instead of gold. I have not found a model number or code stamped anywhere on my...
