			If you can post some clear, detailed pics then somebody might be able to ID the manufacturer. Since you've posted in the Japanese/Asian guitars section I'm assuming it's marked MIJ - pictures that clearly show body & neck construction, hardware, electronics if possible, and any visible markings or numbers will be helpful.
Japanese guitar manufacturers sold all over the world & most of these instruments will have been badged for or by the importer, so it's seldom possible to know from the brand name which factory built it.
The other problem of course is that copies do tend to look a lot like each other - but certain factories had little idiosyncrasies which can help tell them apart.
