.....and why? Also, what is your favorite Tesoro detector, and why?
Just thought I might have a little fun. The Tesoro talk lately hasn't been very upbeat with all there troubles. Thought I would try and lighten the mood. Anyhow, there is no secret that I love Tesoro metal detectors. I have owned a bunch. Some I kept a while and some I traded/sold off. Heck, It's mostly the only detectors I have owned. There is just something about there uniqueness that appeals to me.
I will make an attempt to list all that I have owned but I may have forgotten a couple along the way.
Vaquero (purchased new, my first Tesoro)
3 Compadre's ( one with the 8" donut and one with the 6" bought new , and one flea market find 7" coil.)
2 Golden Sabre's
Golden Sabre Plus (still own)
Bandido 2 (non-uMax)
Silver Sabre
Golden uMax (old tone)
2 Deleon's (still own one)
Tejon
Royal Sabre
Cutlass
Lobo
My favorite so far is a tie for Golden Sabre Plus and Vaquero. I love the adjustable tone break on the Golden Sabre Plus and it has respectable depth. The audio of the older units sound sweet to my ears. The Vaquro was my first Tesoro and I loved it's depth and ability to pick out deep, good targets in the trash.
As for the one I would like to try. Old metal box Eldorado. I have heard it is a deep machine and I just like the old metal box machines for what ever reason. Thanks for playing along. Let's hear your thoughts!!
