Just upgraded my Martin S1 with a set of Gotoh UPT tuners (thanks Ron).

Cleaned the fret board and applied some fret board conditioner while I was at it. New Martin M600 flourocarbons to round it out.

Did it have PegHed tuners before?

Nice job on the replacements. It looks perfect.

I replaced the Pegheds on my 1T IZ with black UPT-L Ovals. They work great. Much easier for me to get a precise adjustment.

Originally it had the friction tuners that Martin uses on the OXK and S1 ukuleles.

I like the way Pegheads look but the Gotohs are less expensive and easier to install.

And, thanks for the complement. I got a violin peg reamer on Ebay and followed the HMS installation video.
