I know Gotoh is a respected brand, but these aren't their best, are they? They're half the price of a Godin set, so why can I assume they're better?
Once you achieve a certain minimum quality standard, price has very little to do with it. I have been using Gotoh tuners since the early-1980's, and never had a stripped gear.
IMHO, having different ratios for the different strings is of dubious value, and like I said before, a high ratio in a gear of limited size invites this type of failure.
I think the main reason for the high asking price is the 'innovation'.
