What do you guys think of yours?I'm just getting into detecting.Planned on getting an AT Pro but money is tighter than I planned.So getting an Ace 400 to get started then possibly upgrade later on.Don't see a lot about them on here.Curious how others like there's.Thanks,Ross

Garrett Ace 400

I've had my Ace 400 for a few months now and love it.Other than it not being water proof like the AT Pro
I'd put it right their with it.I've got friends that have the AT Pro and I find as much as they do.The
basics are the same.You dry test different objects to determine the numbers to the objects.Depth is
just as good in my opinion and in a seeded hunt here while back I cut back on the sensitivity,put
it all coin mode and found more than most with the high end detectors.No it's not the best out there
but for the money?You'll like it.I found these two silvers with mine in what I thought was completely hunted out.
I had to go deep,but that's what this thing does.I recommend it.Of course the AT Pro is water proof.
I'm not into hunting in a pouring down rain or under water,so my water proof coil is all I need.
Good luck,good hunting,and don't forget to fill the holes....

I enjoyed the one I had. Never had falsing signals and had great descrimination accuracy. It's a good starter detector and will help you learn the basics of detecting. Save your clad until you have enough to buy an at pro..:,)

If the ground balance is important to you in your area then most definitely go for the pro.

Thank you guys,for the comments.I'm picking it up this afternoon after work.I do plan to upgrade in the future to a Pro but this will be great to learn on.And also to teach my kids on.

I also love mine. I have the Ace 300 for the kids, and a 400 for myself. It's impressive how good the ID'ing is on it once you get the hours under your belt with it. I was planning on upgrading once i learned mine as well. Now that i have mine, i honestly don't see the need (for me) to upgrade at this point. But i too am not interested in the water hunting, and so far i have not really had a need for ground balancing. Good luck and happy hunting.....
