Introducing the exquisite Balalaika Prima, a masterfully crafted instrument that embodies the rich cultural heritage of Russia. Measuring approximately 27 inches in length, this traditional 3-stringed instrument features a scale length of 430 mm and a classic triangular body shape. The back, made with alternating staves of walnut and lacewood, offers a striking contrast to the light-colored soundboard, enhancing both its aesthetic appeal and acoustic performance. Included with the Balalaika Prima is a nylon gig bag and pick, ensuring you have everything needed to start your musical journey.

The Balalaika Prima is tuned above middle C to A, E, E (1st-3rd), with the first string being the thinnest and extending over more frets than the others. This instrument's design allows for a unique playing style, where the left hand notes the strings while the right hand strums near the neck. The walnut on the soundboard not only adds a decorative touch but also protects it from strumming wear. Embrace the historical significance and cultural depth of the Balalaika, an instrument that has evolved from the Oriental dombra and has been cherished by Russian musicians for centuries. Elevate your musical experience today by adding this timeless piece to your collection.
