i have used a sovereign for the last 10 or so years..i was in the market for a new detector recently so decided to give the explorer se pro a try.to make a long story short i bought this detector brand new about a week or two ago.ive used it one time for about 1.5 hours outdoors and a couple hours in the house just testing..i just really dont detect enough to spend the time relearning another detector.i know its deep and works well but its just different.if anyone is interested in trading their sovereign gt for my explorer se pro let me know.ive traded on the different forums in the past.ive been away for a few months.. my email is dladams76@hotmail.com cell 3347018897 im in dothan alabama my name is daniel adams thanks
