The Balalaika Prima, a beautifully crafted instrument that measures approximately 27 inches in length with a scale length of 430 mm. Its classical triangular shape and stave construction in rosewood create a stunning contrast with the light-colored wood of the soundboard. This exquisite design not only enhances its visual appeal but also contributes to its rich, resonant sound.

The Balalaika Prima is tuned above middle C to A, E, E (1st-3rd), with the thinnest string laying over more frets than the others. For optimal tuning, use a piano or electronic tuner as a reference. The tension on each tuning peg can be adjusted by tightening or loosening the screw on the top of the peg. Playing this instrument involves noting the strings with the left hand while strumming high on the soundboard near the neck with the right hand. The decorative dark rosewood on the soundboard not only adds to its beauty but also protects it from strumming wear. Embrace the rich history and cultural significance of the Balalaika, an instrument that has evolved from the Oriental dombra and has been cherished by Russian people for centuries.
