I'm thinking of changing to a better ukulele tuners for my ko'olau to waverly or gilbert? Worth it or not? what your guys opinion about waverly or gilbert?
We were just talking about it on a thread regarding Aldrine's Uke. Check it out. Waverly and Gilbert Tuners are both very good. Gilberts are better but more expensive and their looks are definitely not traditional. What's wrong with your current tuners?
Aloha Regster,
Although In haven't tried the tuners you mentioned...If your tuners are working properly, it will so minute difference...I keep wondering if it's really worth it...I'd put the money in the new uke
piggy bank..just my:2cents:
If the uke is a keeper and has sentinmental value as well...it may be a thought, but otherwise I would stay with the same set up..as for try before you buy...it's the only way to go..Alot of people would do that but I can't just get a new uke like that. When I was searching for a k brand ukes. This was the only uke I came across, so it had the sentimental value. I had traveled 200 miles to get this uke(dayton to indianapolis). I don't need a lot of uke. It's hard to take care of so many ukes. I don't also think its worth its to buy a uke more than 1000 unless I make music for a living. I just need two descent uke, I already have this and the kamoa. Plus I don't trust internet, I buy a uke, I need to see it and play it face to face.
I'm still debating if I should upgrade because if its working fine why change it.
These tuners intrique me!
