The Helmet-Shaped Gusli arrived today. it has a great sound. Three string became unwound but that will be easy to fix. I am very pleased with the instrument. Please tell Sergey that he has great craftsmanship in making instruments.

Just wants to inform you that I received a beautiful instrument with the postman this morning. One of the string had fallen of, but I managed to put it on again. It has a splendid sound.
Thank you for the trade.
Kind regards

Hi! The psaltery arrived and it looks lovely. A couple of the strings broke during shipment, but there is no damage to the body. I’m going to replace the strings with the ones included. Thank you again for a wonderful instrument. I’m looking forward to playing it for a long time.

Dear Baltic Psalteries team
The beautiful Psaltery..Gusli has arrived and I am delighted with it. So well made and such a lovely resonant tone from a master craftsman. You should have a maker’s mark on it, you know; either a stamp or a label inside.
Now I need to learn to play it. I already play an 11 string Kantele so this is a step up.
Thank you again for the lovely instrument
With best wishes
Sara

Perfect condition, beautiful instrument. The sound is amazing, rich and deep! My fingers seem to dance in the string on their own… I am going to have a lot of fun with this one. Great craftsmanship, congratulation on the work and thank you for all your patience and help ☀️ I will definitely recommend your instruments around 😁
When I create a sound masterpiece I’ll send you a video clip if you would like 🎶
Thank you and until next time, be well, stay healthy and keep making these awesome psalteries.
All the best, Dejan
