These chrome and white long shaft ukulele machine heads are very popular. And it's not hard to see why... 
 
This set of uke machine heads look like friction tuners but are actually geared tuners. The Gotoh Planetary tuners have 1:4 gear ratio and share a lot more functional similarities with geared tuners meaning they will rarely need tightening. 

These machine heads need a hole 9.7-10mm diameter to fit and vintage ukuleles will often require minor work to make these tuners fit. They are designed for headstocks 11.5 - 13.5mm thick. For thinner headstocks, use the Gotoh UPT standard shaft tuners. Please measure your instrument carefully before ordering.
 
The better the ukulele, the more important the friction/geared machine heads become in relation to the instruments weight, sound, sustain and it's ability to stay in tune. Gotoh's UPT planetary ukulele tuners were designed by Yusuke Kawakami to blend classic looks with modern functionality. Used and recommended by many note worthy ukulele brands, including Blackbird, Martin, and aNueNue.
