I picked up my "new" Bandido today, I bought this detector from ebay-France , it took me 15 minutes to unpack, he also sent me one of coins he found, now I have to learn how to ground balance properly
Current: Black Vaquero w 5.75" Con & 11x8 RSD, Compadre 8" Donut, T2 w 11"DD, Ace 300i w 7x10", Vanquish 440 w V10, & Simplex+ SP28.
Past: Whites 4000D Ser 3 w 8" Con, Radio Shack 3001 Micronta 18Khz.
Great grab, you will have lots of fun with your new Tesoro Bandido 2 uMax. I also picked up a T2 where the previous owner passed along one of his coin finds with the detector. Nice to see others are continuing this tradition. HH.
If you ask me - it's one of the very best Tesoro had made. Ground balancing is easy. Lot of youtube vids on how to do it. I always run mine a little negative (all of my Tesoros with manual GB) for best response and depth. Keep your discrimination as low as you can stand - and dig more trash - to find more small gold.
You’ll love it. If you don’t - send it to me and I’ll love it. ^_^
