[Heeplist] Singer changes

[Shawn Mctopy]

Just an interesting idea:


I wonder if anyone has tried installing a pickup on a Balalaika?

I know there are electric Mandolins, so I just thought it would be neat to
try a similar approach to Balalaika.


An electric balalaika could produce some very unique and exotic sounds, I'd
imagine.
