my fresh "happy" track with unusual instruments...

I'm sure you know that in latest years the ukulele was widespread used for a lot of "happy" tracks, often used in carefree commercials or motivational videos.

I'm trying to adding some fresh tone and mood to these songs, using unusual instruments which can sound like an ukulele but that in fact are different.
I have a wide collection of instruments at home, gathered from all the world, and for the following tracks i used a balalaika from russia, a mandolin and a small chinese lute.





I have also arranged some edited version, can do more if needed!

have a look at the photos of the instruments I used:

Very nice, maybe you will start a new trend with the happy Balalaika tracks. Good luck and way to experiment with new instruments!

thanks! :)
