I just got ukulele number three in the mail yesterday. I'm psyched. It also happens to be the first uke in my collection to have friction tuners.
I know some people like the friction tuners, but I don't care for it. I really prefer the precision you get from geared tuners' gear ratio.
I was thinking about ordering some tuners somewhere and switching 'em out. Which leads me to a few questions:
--How easy is it to install geared tuners where there had been friction tuners before? Is this something where I'm going to want to take it into a guitar shop?
--What should I look for in a tuner?
--Is there anything I should know before making this change?
Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated.
