Description
The Gotoh SGi510-UK is the ukulele-specific version of Gotoh's smallest 510-series machine head, made in Japan. Built on the flagship SG510 sealed-gear platform, the "Super-Mini" body pairs precision-fitted sealed gears and a 16:1 ratio with a dedicated short UK string post, sized to fit the thinner headstocks typical of ukuleles—delivering geared-tuner accuracy and stability that traditional friction pegs can't match.
This set is configured 2Lx2R in gold (GG), with metal buttons finished to match. A refined, low-profile upgrade for ukulele builds and retrofits that want the smooth feel and long-term reliability of Gotoh's 510 engineering.
Note: Confirm your ukulele's headstock hole and post-length requirements before ordering—UK-post dimensions differ from the standard SGi510.
