Hi everyone.
A few days ago, I stumbled across this image online.
To me, it looks like a Garrett concept design for a new type of detector.
The resemblance to White's detectors is obvious to me (specifically the coil and shaft).
Combine that with the improved features of the Spectra series, and I think it would be a winner.
But I don't know any details for sure...

I really like the design and hope this is a possibility in the near future . I started detecting in 1972 and Whites, Garrett , Fisher and Tesoro were the main stay but as technology improved not everyone kept pace. Some closed shop and others are still here but seem to have to play catch up with other more popular brands . I was happy with tone hunting with my Garrett AT4 but fell into the trap with the latest and greatest and believe Garrett could be a major player in the highly competitive sport detector market . The old story is still true that it has to be under the coil to find it , at times it isn't a new detector but a new location . The possibility of a new Garrett is exciting with real world usable features , maybe this is the one to set the bar .

I wish Garrett would pickup Tesoros.

With White's MXT ground tracking and confidence blocks.
And Tesoros iron reject.
With the ability to see thru a bed nails better than most every machine I've run.

Even better than my Sovereign GT.
Clearer and faster by miles.

That combination with the new tech they've developed would be a Killer.
