Wow! Being a bouzouki player, I start feeling unique

Yes, I've googled... The fact is, the instrument I'm considering is branded as Gewa:

It is just my guess that it is manufactured by Hora specially for Gewa, judging by the fact that the instruments look exactly the same, up to cosmetic details, with the only exception that this particular wood combination is not listed on the Hora site (obviously this line is produced on special order specially to be marketed by Gewa).

BTW, I see that Gewa lists balalaikas, too:
