Still works very well, but it's kind of sad how good of shape it's in.

you are obviously not finding enough time to swing that MD...call in sick and get busy or something!

 

[bean man]

No Cyn, thats not it. I was going pretty good when I first got it, found some cool stuff. Then one really hot day, I think I had a pulltab nervous breakdown.

Yeah, I think I've had a few pull tab break downs too, lol... My Garrett Deepseeker is right at 30 now and my new Ace 250 just puts it to shame. If I had that Ace back in the 70's I would have been in heaven. Have a good one

Pulltab breakdown yes I've had one also. This past weekend detecting an historical site , so hot that the sweat was running in my eyes, and I was on the verge of heat exhaustion!! I hit a signal that was loud and clear to the exact site I dug and dug > sweeping over the hole each time and still picking up a remarkable signal Finally I hit something , yeh >>> it was the top to something like a sardine can with a pulltab attached I crawled my way up to the porch of the 1847 Italianette Mansion where I was spending the weekend with friends , begged for water and swearing off HH MDecting forever !!!!!!!!!!
OH your metal detected looks great by the way

One more year and you can buy it a drink! You've managed to keep it in very fine condition. Happy Birthday to the detector. Enjoyed the "vintage" photo.
