I have a Kamaka longneck concert with Shaller tuners and I really disliked the balance. I finally got the Gotoh UPTs and the uke is significantly better. Since it's much better balanced, the playability has improved. I personally like the look better as well as it now looks like a Kamaka concert head.
I know some people might say otherwise but you can feel a big difference in the before and after. I would pay the extra upcharge to get the Gotohs vs. doing it after and having some ugly holes. HAHAHA
In fact, I believe it will help any longneck that has closed geared tuners.
