Just seen Nokta/Makro Holiday add with a pretty woman underwater with a detector! Looks like we’re gonna have another top of the line machine soon?

Great video Keith, machine sounded real good on that 13” dime. I can’t wait to get out with my machine. The VGG is definitely staying in my arsenal, now just need a super six for it and I’m all set. I look forward to your hunt review. Thanks

I really think those that use the original VG are gonna really like this new one. It feels/sounds more refined. I haven’t been out with it yet besides my test bed in my yard and some air testing in my emi layden house which doesn’t seem to bother machine nearly as bad as my other machines. The only way I can describe it is whoever is hunting with this VGG is gonna have a lot of confidence that t

Got my VGG today, put it together and gave it a quick try in my yard. Wow! I’m really liking the improved audio, sounds cleaner/tighter. I can tell this new VGG is gonna be awesome. Just running this machine for 10 minuets made me realize how much I missed having a DeepTech machine. And this one feels more refined in a way. It hit all my test coins no problem. 12” quarter, 10” dime, 12” nickel.

Thanks for the info Ziggy Looks like the new VGG is gonna be another awesome machine from DeepTech. Those $1 Gold coins are gonna have a hard time staying hidden with this machine hunting them down lol. I got my tracking number this morning for my VGG, hope to have a window of decent weather to try it out when it shows up.

I got one on the way, had an original VG and it was a really great machine. I think they only have the 11” coil for it right now but I’m sure the other size coils will be along soon. I’m wondering if it’s locked in slow or fast mode since the option to select either has been eliminated, I never needed fast mode on the original the slow mode was fast enough and gave extra depth.

Yep that’ll kill the detecting depth alright, I’m getting blasted with same stuff tomorrow and with the temp drop it ain’t gonna melt anytime soon. looks like I’ll be stuck in a loader plowing all night tomorrow. Hope it melts quick Keith, drive safe.

I’ll be 40 next Friday, got my first detector at 10 “ whites 2500” been hooked ever since. hope to live a long life and plan on detecting till I just can’t do it anymore. I love getting out and seeing what finds I’ll make next. Also enjoy trying all the different machines and seeing the technologies advance. I really appreciate this forum and all the great hunters on it and the knowledge I’ve g

Sounds like just the machine I need for my 1 bar dirt plowed fields so I ordered one from Skiwhiz with the 12x10 coil. Can’t wait to learn this machine and see what else is lurking down deep at my fields. Thanks for everyone’s review on this machine that helped me decide on getting one and Thank you very much for the great deal skiwhiz. Can’t wait to see Keith’s video review I appreciate your t

I would love to see an AT pro/gold/max in this housing and rod set up. I don’t care if different brands look alike as long as the ergonomics are right and i like how the machine performs. I love how detectors are becoming more compact,lighter, waterproof/resistant and rechargeable especially like how you can recharge the Equinoxes while detecting. Wouldn’t surprise me if we eventually see a small

I’ve had no problems whatsoever with my deteknix headphones for deus or deteknix scubatector. Actually the build quality is very good. And the deus ws4 puck fits into the phones really nice, I’m very happy with these headphones. I’ll probably try one of their detectors just not sure which one yet.

PastTom, I heard awhile back someone asked about an improved waterproof tdi and someone from whites said its old tech, I’m betting we’re gonna see a new high end machine from whites that’ll be a very welcome addition for a lot of us.

The Unicorn would be the light weight GPZ 7000 successor with full range disc at full depth with all the other goodies like tone break, reactivity, etc etc.. oh and affordable.
