The other Marlins like the Sidewinder etc were made in Korea by Samick.

They have the distinctive Samick neck plate, which you also see on a lot of other guitars including Korean Epiphones and Squiers.

With regard to Japanese manufactureres...

Fuji Genn also made...

KIMBARA

and...

CSL

and...

ANTORIA

Matumoku also made...

VOX (the Japanese 80's ones)

CMI (A Marshall import name)

and...

SAXON (I think!)

"Marlin" guitars were manufactured in East Germany by Musima. It was one of their export brands. The Marlin Slammer, for example, is actually a Musima Lead Star. My Slammer still had the original "Made in GDR" sticker on it and old German electronics inside, like RFT pots.
Can't say where the "Marlin by Hohner" came from. At least they didn't came with German parts anymore, so this sounds legit: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f8/does-a ... ost5014581

And two further Teisco brands: http://www.musiker-board.de/gitarrenmod ... ost5528227

Fujigen Gakki manufactures the Made In Japan instruments, and by contract, when Fender changed factories in the late 1990's to Dyna Gakki, they were obligated by contract to change the "Made in Japan" label to "Crafted in Japan". I've not figured out what other brands of guitar Dyna Gakki makes.

I just love these old guitars.

My Acoustic Guitars Catalog Section is pretty bare bones at the moment. My priorities have always been with electric guitars and amps since I own over 200 electric guitars but only 1 acoustic. It's an old Yamaha FG-160 I bought as a teenager and it still sits on a stand in my dinning room for when I want to grab a guitar upstairs and play some chords. It's not good tone but we go back a long way. I've lugged it around many a hootenanny and campfire over the years.

The good news is I own 2-3 file tubs of Acoustic Guitar literature. As I get more satisfied with the Electric Guitar and Amp Literature I have uploaded I'll focus more on making this information available in the Catalog Library.

I'll address some of the Japanese brands on your list in the near future. But as you know, the text will be in Japanese.
