"Receptive, responsible, kind, ready to help with the selection, if you are choosing a gift for someone. Immediacy and friendliness are certainly two qualities that set them apart from everyone else, and for that reason they were also the reason for their selection. Very high quality, great sounding gusle, and I will certainly return to them again and wholeheartedly recommend them to everyone! 5* and big BRAVO! [Note: google translate]"

"The first thing that comes to mind is how very flexible everyone has been with shipping. The gusle was supposed to arrive in Prague in 12 days for my husband's birthday. In order for them to succeed, even their uncle, who happened to be visiting them, helped. If it weren't for him, the surprise wouldn't have worked this year for sure. When we finally opened them for the birthday, I was speechless. I bought them through the website, I have never been in their store or ever held a violin in my hands. They are so perfectly made, such a sound comes out of them that we and all our friends here who had the opportunity to see them, were very pleasantly surprised. I bought a gusle quite by accident, which can not only be used as an instrument, but also a beautiful decoration in our living room. I am quite sure that they will be passed on to the next generations with joy and as a great honor. Thank you for that. [Note: google translate]"

Craftsman
Medojević Đoko
Born on May 8, 1958, in Mojkovac, where he lives and works. He is a carpenter by profession, and he has been crafting gusle and woodcarvings for the past forty years.
Crafting gusle requires a lot of patience and skill. It takes from 15 to 30 days to make one gusle, depending on the level of details. He creates gusle in a traditional manner, handcrafting the wood using chisels. Gusle are made from a single piece of wood, what contributes to the quality and durability of the craftsmanship.
Throughout his career, he has crafted over 50 gusle models.
