Balalaika is tuned E–E–A, with 15 frets to work with. Voicings are computed for this tuning by the shared voicing generator, not borrowed from another instrument; the two lower strings share one pitch, so a chart can hold the same note twice.
Browse alternate voicings to find the one that sits best under your fingers, then compare it with the other chord types built on E or explore the same shape in nearby keys. The diagrams list the notes in each voicing so you can connect the shape to the theory behind it.
