Okay. Im only ten years old, so i might not help that much, but ill try. I looked them up in a guitar magazine, im looking for one myself. They are made in India, and they can be worth, depending on what model, between $235 and $399 american. I tried looking for www.lotusguitars.com and they dont exist. Have you tried their owner's website, www.midcomusic.com? That might help.
I grew up playing Lotus and Kay guitars. They are not very good for about $150-400 try www.musicians friend.com They have epiphone,squier,Ibanez,and even B.C. Rich. Which are better quality guitars.
i can't believe what you are saying
i have a lotus and it plays better then any epiphone,squier or ibenez.
i have played squiers, strats, whatever..
they don't even compare
you're either crazy or you haven't played a lotus!!
Me and my friend just fixed up a lotus L650 guitar. I think it is a japanese import guitar from the 1970's. It plays great and sounds really unique. I guess it depends on ur taste because my friend thought it sounded like crap but i thought it was great. The neck plays fast and the fretboard has NO action. I have a Duncan humbucker in the neck (i dont know what model, it came from the neck in my friend's Schecter C-1+) and it has a Duncan Invader in the bridge. Its a really great guitar and i love it.

Hello,
if you need the price range on a lotus strat it depends on the model what there worth.. you can buy a lotus L660 at a music store im most area's for around $160--$180 a lotus L690 rund higher like around $180---$200 but you can find them cheaper the list price is higher.. The also Make a lotus les paul wish runs around $250 and a lotus hollowbody electric that runs around $300 thats if its a new guitar.. thats buying it from the company...
II bought a Lotus guitar for $100 at a nice guitar store. let me tell you that unless you are extremely poor looking for a guitar, do not even touch a Lotus brand guitar, they are a piece of shit. for example, i was in the process of tuning by ear, and, after i finised, i strummed it all the way through once, and after that it was out of tune, lotus brand guitars suck, they dont keep tune, mine is fat as hell, the parts are put together like shit, the back part that the strings go through from the bottom of the guitar can be bent with the fingers, not even needing a whammy bar, ITS A PIECE OF SHIT!
well you must have on shitty lotus then. i have a beautiful, pristine lotus. a nice stain finish. it's been around the block i must admit. it's atleast 20 years old has not been repaired since i got it. still plays. just needs a few minor repairs like knobs. it plays better then my epiphone sg. it's such a nice guitar. a little on the heavey side, but it's not lacking quality. the bridge and other such compenents are so strong. your's must be made of plastic.
I recieved one of the les paul lotus guitars one of you described. I' just bought a Fender Strat and wish to sell it. It's in pretty good shape and I've never really had problems with it. Any idea how much it would go for? I dont want to get screwed. Thanks

(please email me if you know anything about these kind of guitars. I haven't found hardly anything)

TRY SAMICK GUITAR INFO SITES ,,, SOME LOTUS WERE DESIGNED BY Greg Bennett AND BUILT BY SAMICK . SAMICK HAS PRODUCED GUITARS UNDER A 100 NAMES AND VARYING DEGREES OF QUALITY.. LOTUS GUITARS WERE BUILT BY SEVERAL OFFSHORE CO.'S AND AT TIMES WERE EVEN CUSTOM PRODUCED IN SMALL QUANTITY IN CANADA. BUT ANY GUITAR TECH SHOULD BE ABLE TO HELP YOU OUT WITH THE WIRING....I THINK THIS QUITE FROM HARMONY SAYS IT ALL
"Better than buying the same guitar with the word Gibson on it for my year's salary or more!!" "it's a mistake to buy a guitar without playing it...the only reason you should buy a guitar is because you pick it up and play it, and it feels right," and then you have :"This thing is absolutely the worst guitar I've EVER played" followed by anothers: "I wish I had asked the guy at the pwan shop why the hell he was selling this guitar so cheap! I would pay ten times(really!) what I paid for an instrument of this quality. I would buy a thousand of these. I love absolutely everything about this guitar except for the big, ugly-ass headstock. This was the absolute best buy I've ever made. Fifty bucks for an instrument that kicks serious ASS!!! My REAL Les Paul is only *slightly* better than this and I paid almost 100 times as much for it, and it blows all of the "authentic" crap copies that Epiphone makes out of the water." Not my opinion but that of someone who actually can afford a real gibson.. Anyone know what a diamond looks like before the cut and polish??? worthless coal....
I wanted to learn how to play guitar for awhile so my friend was selling his guitar for 50 bucks it was one of those lotus stratocasters. I played it and it sounded like shit so i got a chance to get al these nice elctrical componets for a fender strat for a really good price. so i replaced all the electrical componets and now it sounds pretty nice. i havent had much problems with the tuning like other people. the only problem i have with it is the fretting was done half ass. I think its the 14th and 15th fret that there is no change in sound. It is pretty heavy but this thing is unbreakable unless you absolutely try. and the rumors that they are built in an abandoned fender factory in india im not sure if thats true or not but it makes a good story well thats pretty much everything i know about this guitar

Lotus is a company that mass produces copys of guitars for beginers! they are great to learn on but when you have mastered your 3 chords throw the mutha in the river! they weigh a ton they dont stay in tune the electronics feed back and shriek like a 2 year old that has $hit his pants!! I believe the lotus is made by samick which is a company that makes 1/3 of the guitars in the world. So dont buy one, try not to play one. Hell buy a epiphone cheap,there worth a damn, and hold there value
