  Station Information - Gudok
Gudok is an ancient Russian string musical instrument, which was played with a bow.
Gudok usually has 3 strings: 2 of them were tuned in unison and the 3d - one fifth higher.
Later (in 14th century and after) some modifications of gudok had a real neck for pressing strings, but this wasn't very useful because of specific instrument's shape and was an obvious borrowing from fiddles.

 Sydney Balalaika Orchestra
By the mid-eighteenth century, the balalaika was easily the most popular instrument amongst the Russian people.
Several factors contributed to the: earlier stringed instruments such as the 'gusli', 'domra' and 'gudok' - all of which may have rivalled the balalaika - had gone out of fashion, the guitar had not yet penetrated into the Russian life, and it was surprisingly easy to make a balalaika at home.
It was the latter that also contributed to the change in shape from the oval to triangular - it was much easier to form straight sides that curved.
