Here’s a photo with all the tuners I mentioned. You can see the Ukulele Lite Planetary tuner laid on the back of the headstock of my Kamaka which has Gotohs installed. You can see the Koaloha button swap with the Ukulele Lite. Btw, the buttons on the Gotohs will not swap like this. You can see Pegheds on my Mya Moe, and my Cocobolo. I think the Gotohs would look too small on a lot of ukes. I just weighed one of the Planetary lites. It is 13.5 grams.
Gotoh claim their UPTLs are 15.9gm, and the UPTs are 15gm. I’m not going to pull them off my Kamaka to weigh. I just weighed a cheapy friction tuner I took off a soprano. It is 10.5gm.
