Rings
Bob in Albuquerque, NM USA -I am very impressed with the 1350. I have been using it for about 6 months ( I have been dectecting for 13 months) and this weekend I found my 33rd ring. I can only hunt for about 4 hours a week, but have found $275 in coins and 33 rings including my first diamond ring. Thanks Garrett.

Pinpointer
Chuck in El Paso, TX -
After pinpointing a target I always found it, even if it was a pull tab. Unfortunately pull tabs and gold rings have the same signature. One way to find targets quickly is to use two trowels: one metal for hard ground, and pour the dirt into a plastic one to wave over the coil to let you know when you have it. After locating the scoop slowly shake the dirt out untill you find the target.

The 1350 is a winner!
Billy in Tallahassee, Fla -Everything I've heard about the 1350 is dead on! This is one great machine! The learning curve is so easy...is't almost non-existant. Andy's review is absolutely true. By running in the jewelry mode, you will pick up more depth. Make sure sensitivity is at max, and you'll be diggin' Chinese coins! This is my favorite ID detector!!

Easy to use detector
Andy,NM in New Mexico -Let me start what to do first before you go out in the field with this nice detector.
Here are my tips:
1. Set the threshold to the point where you can barely here it.
2. Tape the coil cable straight up the lower rod.
(See my picture)
3. After you did number 2 run sensitivity at max.
If the detector is not stable back down a notch.
4. Run it in jewelry mode for max depth.
If you run it in coin mode you loose some depth.
5. Get the 4.5 inch coil for it.That coil will give you great target separation and id around old houses.
6.Make sure you always have spare battery holder.That is the only weakness of the Garrett.
7.If the id jumps for iron to coin...it's junk.
If it jumps in the coin range it's a deep coin most of the time.
The Garrett GTP 1350 is the same model like the GTAx 1250 but the 1350 has profiling (sizing).
I think that profiling isn't really necessary, because you can tell by the length of the tone that size the target is.I don't like that you turn profiling on every time you press pinpoint; because you have to press it again to turn it of.
It uses different tone in profiling mode than in disc mode...why...it's not helpful.
that profiling is just a help if you hunt a place where targets are not to close together (Beach).In trash you can't use it because the coil sees to many targets at once and the reading is off.
The GTP 1350 can size with ALL coils unlike the GTIs.
Is the Garrett deep ??? Yes if you follow my tips.
It is as deep as every other top of the line detector out there.I compared it to the Whites MXT and can say the Garrett hits better on silver and copper, but the MXT is a little hotter on nickels.The Garrett runs more quiet.
The garrett is well balanced and fun to use.You don't have to read the manual every time you use it, because it is easy to use.There are no outside controls you could accidently turn.
Target ID is right on if you use the right coil for the area you hunt in.Nickel can come in a little higher some time, so accept one more notch up.
I liked the 1250 better, because i don't need the profiling.Performance is the same.
HH,
Andy
