It is said that the Balalaika embodies the Russian people’s character, with its ability to switch from happiness to sadness with ease. It is a warm, three stringed instrument with a beautiful sound and deep roots in the traditions of Russia. The Balalaika most likely evolved from the Oriental dombra, but in the later 19th century the instrument underwent a number of changes, including the adoption of the classic triangular shape.
Roosebeck Balalaikas are authentic in design and crafted from quality woods by skilled artisans.
It is our mission to design authentic instruments, accessible to enthusiasts who desire quality without a high price-tag.

"Primo Prima Balalaika"
Flawless transaction, was kept apprised of status of my order every step of the way without a single snag of complication. The balalaika itself was packed with care and arrived in perfect condition. I took my time before reviewing the instrument as I'm learning how to play with this and initially has issues with the outer E string slipping from the bridge but this honestly was my own placement of the free floating bridge combined with learning the strumming style. After a month I can say the Roosebeck plays like a dream and will probably be the instrument I keep throughout my time learning and playing the balalaika. I cannot praise HCWI enough for there seamless services in transaction and providing quality instrument."
