With a lot of effort, work, and love, Mr. Đoko Medojević made sticks that will one day be museum objects! His hands are golden!"

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]"

Product review
"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]"

"I am very satisfied with the work and mastery of Đoko Medojević. He did more and better than I could have imagined. At the same time, he hosted me like no one before. All praise is for Đoko and his wife and their son Ivan, who gave his best in communication from the first message. I will happily remember this experience with them whenever I pick up gusle!"

"Wonderful people and hosts. I took my grandfather's gusle for repair, not expecting I would enjoy the beauty of the village Kaludra and the local products of the Medojevic family, that I would hear old legends and many historical events. Djoko is a top-notch master, not only for gusle, but for everything made of wood. Gusle now looks and sounds as if they were just made. I recommend everyone who wants to enjoy this subject visit Household Medojevic!"
