    Vaquero Awesomeness!

    So I finally got around to metal detecting the front yard by the driveway and found three wheat cents, a key, a small pocket knife, a small metal toy tank, and a quarter as well as a small "friends forever" ring, all within about a 20 square foot area! Needlessly to say, Ill be heading out there...

    Update on the Cortez, Outlaw, and Deleon!

    I just got off the phone with Rusty a little while ago. He is quite knowledgeable and was a delight to talk to! He said that the Deleon didn't have any problems, and that the 12x10 has to be far away from EMI in order to not hear the fluctuations and for it in order to run smooth. The Cortes did...

    Just got back the Compadre!

    Good news! Just got back in the mail the compadre w/8" that had the sensitivity way out of whack. It came back promptly and big thanks to Tesoro! Rusty even worked on it :) Gonna ship the Deleon, Cortes, and Outlaw here in a couple minutes to see if there really is a problem.

    Christmas presents!

    Did anyone buy or receive a beep and dig for christmas? I bought my son a bounty hunter junior to get started in the hobby. He is only two and a half but he seems like he is ready to go outside and find gold rings!

    Not happy about the Cortes or Outlaw...

    Well as some of you know, I received the Outlaw, and the Cortes in the mail today, only that there is a problem with both detectors. On the outlaw, when I flip the switch to the all metal mode, it just screams and there is no way to calm it down, not even with the threshold setting turned all...

    Lobo Super Traq

    I was talking to one of the representatives of a big metal detector comany about Tesoro and he said that the deepest machine besides the Tejon was the Lobo Super Traq. I was a little surprised to hear him say that those machines are pretty good at relic hunting. Do any of you guys/gals own one...

    Interesting fact about the Silver Umax!

    After I was admiring my detectors for a while and watching my son get a kick out of the detector beeping, I looked inside the Silver Umax and to my surprise, the chip for it says Eldorado V1.2? I wonder what the first Silver Umax's have inside?

    Bummed out about the Compadre...

    As you know from am earlier post, I received 2 Compadres with both coils, and a Silver Umax. Problem is that when I turned on the Compadre with the 8" coil, it started acting really erratic. I went outside to see if EMI interference was the problem....it was not. So it looks like I am gonna have...

    Detectors came in the mail finally!

    Man am I happy! Just got done assembling the Compadres (one with 5.75 inch coil and one with 8 inch coil) and the silver Umax! These sure look sweet and cannot wait to take them out! I also received the Silver Sabre Umax from a fellow member on here and would like to thank him also, so needless...

    Was considering the treasure pro but it does not seem to get much attention

    I think that the Garrett Ace series has overshadowed most other beginner detectors from talking to other people out in the field, as well as several metal detecting clubs. Me personally, I don't like the Ace series, and would rather have a Whites, or a Tesoro for ease of simplicity.

    Question about aftermarket coil, rod, and shafts!

    So since I work the graveyard shifts, I thought I would browse what companies make aftermarket stuff for our beloved Tesoro metal detectors. I have came across several places that have fiberglass and carbon fiber shafts (Anderson). Another website has coils that are only used for the delta...

    Tesoro Vaquero and Cibola "notch" question

    I was speaking to a dealer over the phone earlier today about possibly getting a possibly brand new in the box Golden Umax (who he thought might have had one) just for the notch aspect of it. What he told me though, I never really thought about though. He said that there is a sweet spot where...
