This is an excellent VHF detector. It is
very sensitive to small gold. I have dug "nuggets" that weighed in at
1/10th of a grain. It is easy to use and
easy to ground balance. It has not meter so you must learn what the sounds
the detector makes are
telling you. It has an Iron discriminate switch that I have found to be
very accurate. I had a Whites XLT
and loved it thus I purchased a Whites GoldMaster 4B and I hated it because the coil was very eratic and gave many false readings. The Gold Bug 2 has been great and has produced many nuggets - from the very small to the fairly good sized. Overall in my opinion -- it is a great gold detector that is simple, light and easy to use.

Although iI would not recamend this
detector for a first detect unless knowing the general concepts of metal
detectors and the way they
respond under certain conditions,it is a very good detector for finding
gold so small that its almost not
worth picking up and can be used for treasure hunting.If your looking for a very sensitive machine that is very light and fairly easy to use once you get over the basics than I think its one of the best out there.
