I am thinking about buying a vaqeru. I am not sure if I am spelling this detector right. What is your advice and coment on this mach. I have heard that it can go very deep
is this true, I mainly do fair grounds, parks, playgrounds,and tot lots. And what type of coils would you recomend a person use for these applacations, and how do you all
like useing this mach. and my other question is when you take it out for the first time how do you recomend to ground balance I dont understand how to adjust the ground
balance knob. Thanks for getting back to me...

Ive had a Vaquero for a little over 2 months .Its the right detector for me. I have elbow and shoulder problems and had to quit using my old box detector. The Vaq swings easily. Also, my old detector took four c cells and ate them like candy . The Vaq uses only one 9 volt and last it for hours. Its a lot less expensive to run. Ive made several good finds already,all hunting in public areas. Its user friendly. Ive been playing with the settings a lot. In two months, Im much further along the learning curve than the years I spent with the digital machine . Plus the digital displays would jump all over the place on a pocket spill . I have dug up several multi coin spills that I probably pass up with other machines. It flat out performs .

The stock 9X8 goes serious deep especially in AM.
Get a 5.75" concentric for trashy, twiggy ares and you're set.
Just search Tesoro Vaquero on YouTube. Mike (53 silver) has great informative vids including GB
