Golden Gate P-147 Deluxe Banjo Tuners - Nickel - Set of 4

From my husband: “I am reading a lot of reviews that complain of dead spots, like a tooth missing, etc. It may be because the tuners come with the button screw slightly loose. The tuner will slip until you snug up the tuner button screws. They work. No complaints from me for what they cost. I would not put them on an expensive banjo but, for my beater banjo they are a definite upgrade and work great, smooth, hold tune and make my husband’s banjo look and sound like a better class instrument.Yay!”Thank You.

I had no issues with these tuner's. I used them to replace the factory tuners on a Mulucky banjo. Not because of functionality, but because I didn't like the look. I used a drill bit the same size as the insert and made sure I drilled straight. Then fill and sand the screw holes.The tuners work good and so far I have not had to make but minor adjustments.

Smoothness of gears is somewhat inconsistent, but they work very well and look good for the price.

Easy to install, smooth tuning, and seem to stay in tune.

Not the most precise tuners. Some high spot in the gearing causing a grinding effect.

Strong and well made. Good chrome-plating and they hold fast. The spindles are somewhat larger than the original ones being replaced, but it was easy to enlarge the holes. Worth the price.

The last four sets of this type tuners all had one or more tuners that broke or hung up with in the first week. I changed to this supplier at over double the cost, but these are worth it! They work perfectly!

My Chinese beginner banjo wouldn't stay in tune. After a brief autopsy, the horrid tuners were discarded and some fret leveling and polish ensued as I awaited these butter-smooth planetaries. Of course my old fifth tuner was bad, so I shoulda ordered the five together. Very happy with these.
