Leave it to the Reds to come up with something this odd. Although it was probably repainted somewheres else. It's really quite lovely once you get past the yuletide nausea. The neck is speckled and the knobs and fittings are photogenic. Da!
Rare vintage Soviet electric guitar AELITA 2 (Rostov) Military Green USSR Goth N
the pickups & switching look identical to the ural 650's. It may have been repainted, I don't know if the aelita's came with a "made in russia" back plate but I think that's all that is missing.
The guitar above has had some major improvements over the years...
"The top row of buttons cycle between the 3 pickups, the lower buttons are a sort of pre-set tuner, to me it is like having an effects pedal built right into the guitar."
Guitars:
2014 American Deluxe Stratocaster
2013 Gibson SG 61RI
1998 Paul Reed Smith CE22
I've got Soviet Camera Lenses, a Soviet Dive Watch, Russian Guitar Pedals, and in an attic somewhere in Florida, a Russian Tube Amp. Time to add a Soviet Guitar to my communism collection.

For a moment that sounded like someone referring to the good ol' REVERB HANDLE.
