The history of the People's Manufactory "Gusli World" begins in 2012, when the master and entrepreneur Sergey Gorchakov made his first gusli using a unique technology he had developed. The workshop in the village of Pushkino (Tver Region) became the birthplace of a great business. Over the following years, the workshop actively developed, gained fame, and made friends among musicians, lovers of folk songs and Russian antiquity, historians, and reenactors. Today, the company employs about 25 people. More than a thousand gusli are produced per year, and the number of models has already reached 27. The Mir Gusli Manufactory is the world's largest producer of Russian gusli. The instruments are in high demand in all regions of the country and abroad. Since 2018, the manufactory has been collaborating with Dmitry Kukushkin, a renowned music figure. Together, they have created a range of professional instruments for teaching and performing, including the zvonchatye gusli. In 2025, the first specialized service center for repairing, tuning, and restoring gusli was opened in Russia.
