Just be prepared.... It takes a while to get used to! Make sure you get a screen cover.... Also after a while a second coil will be needed....maybe an 8" Minelab and a 5" or 6".... (Sunray x-5 or 6" Excelerator) :) Lots of great support across the forums... Have you tried your friends Se? If so that helps...

The first few times I used my Se I thought ...wow these sounds sure are different than the Dfx.... But as others continue to tell me learn the tones more than looking at the screen great advice! I have really focused on the digital numbers with both the Se and Dfx... I did learn the tone id on the dfx and used the digital numbers as a back up....

Now finally I am using the smart find screen on the Se and starting to use the digital readings as a back up..... I have been taking it very slowly .... My main advice with the Se would be to swing extremely slow.... After I use the dfx for a hunt usually takes me 10-15 minutes just to slow my swing down and get in rhythm with the Se on the next hunt ....

Yea, I have tried his SE. I know to swing at a snails pace. I am prepaired to do all of these things for the deep treasures. Yea, everybody is telling me to learn the tones and not to even learn the numbers (so I don't be lazy and stop listening to the sounds). Thanks for all the great advise reinforcement. :thumbsup:

I just got one yesterday but I need to order the pro Coil ,, anxious to get out and try it .. guzz1
 

Cool!

I had a brand new SE last Christmas but let some people talk me into sending it back in exchange for another machine. I wish now I had kept it.

I plan to stop buying other toys and save up for the SE Pro. Most likely get it during the winter slow sales time. Some dealers will give a great deal at that time.

I love the GT but just have to go all the way if you know what I mean?
