My 6 yo son won an Ace 400 at a club meeting. So I had to do some modifications to get it to fit him.
First I added a bicycle bar end to one side so he could use 2 hands. Then I shortened the rod by 4.5 inches. Shortening the rod was a bit tricky but I didn't screw it up. I really wish that Garrett would sell a short rod for use by children. The biggest hurdle at getting kids out is finding a good detector that fits them. I would rather not start them on junk.
Now for the pictures.
