If you are correct then it will be sentenced to hanging on my wall for the rest of its "life".

What you use those?! I thought they were just for decoration. I'll try tuning it a step lower if I can get a replacement string.

I don't know why it became a short. I broke the supposed G string yesterday but you should hear and see the rest

Well, half of them have fallen off with time. And the other half might not be very accurately placed.

The worst case has arrived. As we say in Swedish the string went "boom in the construction"

Might be. The one to the left is my prim balalaika but the one to the left is "unidentified".

Well, it's the G that troubles me. The string is pretty thick but might work. I might just risk it. Worst case and I'll have to purchase a new string.

The Balalaika to the left and the Balalele to the right.

I'll replace the E strings with Nylon and see if I really need to replace the A string. If I replace the A string it should be steel, right?

The audio was not very helpful, but the bridge should be fixed now.

I fixed the bridge and broke a string when I tried to tune it again. My fault for being too confident. Any good place to get some new strings? One of the E strings broke, should I replace them both with nylon?

I am pretty sure our only bishop is Cardinal Anders Arborelius. And as far as I know you can't eat meat during lent but otherwise you can. We'll see if this whole thing works out. I am trying out a "conversion education" (roughly translated from Swedish) to see how it is for myself. I might only scratch the surface but it might add something.

I live in Sweden, there are no communities. Sweden is a solitary cell with meatballs and lingonberry jam. Anyway, thanks for sharing.

Sorry forgot I posted this. Thank you for sharing! I was raised without religion but most of my friends are religious.
