As the headline says, the tuners are very nice and sturdy. However, the screws strip easily (even with a perfectly fitting bit) and if they don't strip then they break. I drilled new holes for the screws so tuners would fit, but they broke and stripped anyway. I didn't want to risk ruining more screws after about 4 or 5 getting stuck in the bass so I had to find others that wouldn't fail.
I saw another reviewer say the same thing a year ago exactly. Gotoh should be ashamed that they haven't fixed such a simple issue.
If you do end up buying this and run into the same problem, I made do with some small Ikea screws. Not ideal but at least they didn't strip or break.

Screws are crappy!

The tuners look good, nice and black. But when installing, 9 (!) out of 16 screws snapped (and before you ask: yes, I pre-drilled the screw holes).
I had to drill out the broken pieces, and allmost ruined a perfectly fine frettles bass neck.
So buyer beware! If you insist on having black Gotoh bass tuners, at least go and buy some decents screws somewhere else.

Parfait sauf la visserie

Je confirme l'avis précédent, la visserie n'est pas d'une qualité en rapport avec la qualité des mécaniques ! Sé taraude trop facilement, et se casse à l'intérieur du bois .... Ne les utilisez surtout pas !!
