Minelabs new GO FIND 20,40 and 60 Metal Detectors

[jhen999]

I just saw one of Minelabs new enterer level metal detectors called the GO FIND 20, 40, and 60...they look ever interesting, they all fold up into a vary small unit, 2.3 pounds, auto ground bal. A true turn on and go machine, take it out of the box , unfold it turn it on and go detecting, Minelab Marketing was on the facebook page Detect America last night showing it off and talking about what it can do, was made to compete with all the other enterer level detectors on the market, but has a lot of features of a high end machine, the touch pad is just that, like a computer screen, just touch it, no pushing, vary vary simple machine. from what they said the GO FIND 20 starts at $179 up to the 60 at $309.. the coils are water proof the machines are not, they will handle wet and dry sand any where you want to take them, I think they have an app that will hook up to your cell phone to take pictures and send them or post them to face book or forums, I think that's what he said, something like that, a new concentric coil design that is square...vary interesting looking machine......Its being called a game changer....guess we will have to see about that...

Well the way it folds up it would be good to take with me in the work truck… It only has that one coil though ..

I got to handle a dealer demo of the GO. Nice and light, very compact when folded up. Extended it was easy to swing. The screen was quite bright and easy to read. I'm 5'9 and was able to adjust the length so it was comfortable. Another club member who was 6'3 was able to go the same. We didn't get to swing over dirt but it picked up coins on the floor accurately. A nice travel package... And for $300 or less., a great price.

Do you know if it has extra coils that fit it .. But still being so compact it will ride nice in the semi truck with me this summer..If they are on sale by then..

All I saw was the demo. Coil didn't look interchangeable. But in not sure. It does have built in Bluetooth for headphones.

Keppy...from what I heard from there marketing manager....its just the one coil that they come with stock on the 40 and 60 its a 10" coil, the 20 has an 8" coil...but said there are other coils for it in the works, down the road........................I think there talking about a release date in mid April.

What kind of info is provided on the screen? Do you get vdi numbers? Is it multi tone? Might be the perfect upgrade for my son.

Here is a link that pretty much tells you all you need to know about all 3 machines..

Bluetooth also allows connection with smartphones' Minelab apps....should be exciting.

There definitely are exciting days ahead for Minelab fans!

I would have to guess that now Garrett will be making something like the Go Find 20 40 60 ..

 

[Kevin in IN]

I did't see in the spec's, is this a BBS like the Sov. or a VLF machine?

Can see you've been around for awhile! Will that include the old outdated treasure hunting book too?

It's based on the same all digital V-Flex technology employed by Xterras.

 

[Keppy]

In the tape they said it was single frequency so like Longhair said it would be like the V-Flex ….

 

[atomicscott]

From what I've read the coil is hard wired so it is definitely more entry level. That was definitely a vacuum in ML's lineup. Good move.
