Up for sale is a beautiful, "special order" level V.Pavlovs Balalaika instrument with stunning flamed maple back. Victor is old age but he is still one the best Russian balalaika makers and he's a legend.
This instrument is brand new and was completed on December 2016. The Balalaika is made of aged, highest-quality, premium woods – the body is made of aged, naturally dried (not kiln-dried) flame maple; the body top is resonant spruce; the neck is made of red wood blank that was obtained by luther more than 30 years ago and it's very resonant. This instrument has an outstanding concert-quality sound, has a beautiful tone with complex overtones, long sustain and it's really loud! The craftsmanship and build quality is top notch and and yes - this instrument definitely does have that Pavlovs signature balalaika sound that many foreign Balalaika players are looking for. I know it's may be subjective, but to my ears this exact balalaika is an absolute best sounding instrument I've ever played.The instrument will be shipped in a custom-made case (a $200 value), and the case is included in the auction. This Balalaika was carefully inspected by maestro Alexander Tsygankov himself (my dad), who is “People’s artist of the Russian Federation” and a professor at Gnesin’s Academy of Music.
This balalaika is 2 of 2 of Luther's winter run, so don't miss your chance! Send me a message if you have any questions about this beautiful Balalaika.
