I’ve been impersonating your accent almost nonstop for about 3 days now. My wife and kids are fed up. It’s priceless. Great video brother! Thanks!

[@LivingGoodAlaska]

I was discouraged by my GM 1000 and the hot rocks until this video. Thank you for the better understanding of its use.

[@jakebrakebill]

Thanks, it's always good to hear someone else's machine, hitting on a target, what it sounds like for the size it is and the ground your over. Plus, if you can't get out, you can do it vicariously thru someone else's video, like yours.

[@natureatitsbest751]

Thanks a bunch for taking the time to explain different types of machines. That’s what makes it so much fun watching your channel. 🇨🇦

[@BustedknucklesProspecting]

Glad you like them!

[@shepshepherd3089]

I've had the GM1000 for well over a year now. My main detector is a Woody modified 4500, but as you say, the GM is used on shallow bedrock.Might I suggest running in all metal and auto1. A good ground balance and it'll run as smooth as glass. On weak signals, I'll move to a manual setting to check, but always run in auto1.

[@wescadmore5959]

how do you like the modded 4500 ? Any better on hot ground or the same Cheers

[@rickreimer1050]

Thanks Shawn/Sean....enjoyed and learnt something every time. Take care.

[@martinstallard6173]

Loved your vid sean. gold monster and creeks seems to be the best combo. learning heaps from you.

[@alpottle]

Watched other videos and just got more confused. This one was well presented and it showed in a simple format how to use one of these machines and their limitations.

[@verumpraevaleat8177]

love ya work mate. cheers from tassies west coast wilderness. Had the monster for about a year and now i finally know how and what to use it for. excellent job...yell out if your ever down here mate , i think you would like it.

[@sten2246]

It doesn't matter if your ground is sensitive and keeps making noise which is obviously annoying and making it harder to determine what is under the ground. Believe me these machines will scream their head off with a sound like you have never heard before when you locate even the smallest piece of gold. Brilliant video thanks for sharing mate

[@ChuckGentles]

Thanks for a great video brother. Here in Arizona the Monster does great in the desert and going over dry washer piles. Subbed to you.😎😎⛏⛏🔥🔥

[@nicbishop4841]

you present the most honest review of the Gold Monster 1000 and it's capabilities,thank you, I may up grade to a 4500 or 5000

[@highcountryoutdoors4929]

Thanks for the tips mate! They have really helped me learn the gm1000

[@3842Crew]

Thank you for making the video, it’s given me more confidence on using a vlf machine to find gold.

[@bigfootingermany]

Thanks for the great video and I'm looking forward to the rest of the series. I have a couple of other VLF's a Minelab Xterra 705 dual pack and a Garrett AT Pro. several coils for both of them, but neither will pick up the really small pieces like the GM1000. My PI is the Garrett ATX, and while it does pretty good on smaller pieces, it kinda maxes out at about the .3gm or so. So I just bought the GM1000 on Black Friday. Looking forward to getting out with it when I get home. Nevada has some extremely heavy mineralized ground in certain areas. So any tips and tricks you can pass on, would be very appreciative mate!! Thanks, Bob

[@markthomas4083]

I think this 1000 is very similar to my Whites GMT. The comment about “moss” is interesting. Great video sir.

[@timareskog2418]

I think you’ve created a new type of music, the “Waboo Pop” ! You could record a loop and call it the Detectors Rap..... It’s bound to climb the charts and go GOLD in no time 😂😂 Thanks for this vid Shaun , you’ve given a great description and hands on demo on using the GM1000, as well as explaining its limitations. As I’m just at the beginning of a BIG learning curve I really value info vids like this one. GL&HH Mate 👍👍

[@eotheleo83]

Thank you for taking the time to make and post this video. I am interested in what PI machine you swing.

[@BustedknucklesProspecting]

It’s not a Pi machine, it’s a vlf

[@MingokTV]

Wow! I really love this metal detector hope I can try this one. Perfect for my channel!

[@johnkpoehner]

This was my favorite video to date. I would like to know more about using Google Earth to find bedrock. I am in the Arizona desert, USA. Thank you

[@billpowell5931]

I am thinking seriously about getting a Gold Monster 1000. Your video is quite convincing even if I am in the southwest US (Arizona). Our washes many times have shallow or exposed bedrock and it looks like the GM1000 would be a good machine for this area. Thanks for sharing.

[@BustedknucklesProspecting]

Yes that would be a perfect place for the GM1000, I’m good friends with a guy by the name of Bill Southern he also has a KZbin channel that would help your a great deal. His Channel name is called (Nugget Shooter ) He lives in Arizona, he specialises in working dry washes with his gm and does quite well. You can learn so much from his videos, tell him I sent you🤠 hope it helps you with better information related to your areas

[@billpowell5931]

@@BustedknucklesProspecting Thank you! He lives less than 10 miles from me. I have watched many of his videos. Maybe someday I can visit Australia. Always been a dream of mine... Cheers!

[@davidhall9679]

Glad i got to this video i already decided that my first detector would be GM1000 Until i can afford to upgrade as i wish to do both goldfields and rivers

[@steven_ewen]

Great informative video Sean. Thanks for sharing

[@338bigguns]

People who use the monster 1000 over here in Arizona find both small and large gold nuggets from .01 up to 4 Oz. I guess Ozzie gold is like brass.

Awesome nuggies, well done matey

[@Mrkrupps]

Good tutorial man! Hey is there any chance I would be able to have the same luck with a nox 600 or would I be wasting my time?

[@greedygringoprospecting6941]

do you have other metal detectors gold bug 2 or a whites gmt or a pulse induction or you like the gold monster do you use rechargeable batteries or the double A ones

[@glentimmins7560]

Awesome tips and video! Thanks for sharing 🇦🇺🤘🇨🇦

[@ewokmyweewok]

Are you still using this gold detector , what ones do you use for beaches I am saving for a good gold one

[@argonaught5666]

I think people put to much emphasis on noisey ground. I have fought noisey ground for 30+ years. Yeah, it's a pain, but I'm pretty good at snagging targets from amongst the noise. My motto is, when in doubt, dig a little! If it's true you'll get an increase in response. Same with discrimination capabilities. I got my monster a few weeks ago and right out the gate got some gold in quarts. Yesterday I broke the ice and got a small nugget in the pouring rain. 🙃 2 hours my rain gear was getting soaked through. I'll be back! This was an area that I previously found some beutiful chispa's and numerous nuggets and had hammered to death with a minelab 2100 and gold bug 2. Also, where I found the gold quartz, I found tiny pieces of blasting cap at 4-5 inches! I guarantee that I've been over and over that ground with the bug and missed those targets! My bug days are over! Hello monster!

[@jasonbourne5985]

do you think this machine would be the best choice for central otago in New Zealand? ..they did have huge gold rush here in the early 19th century and the rivers that flow around here are mostly gravel and rock theres little chinese miners huts all over this region.....i hope you are able to offer some advice mate :))

[@lawson862011]

That’s just awesome...I would pass out to find a piece of gold ...

[@goldpinprospecting9170]

Great video, thanks for the info. I will need to get out using the GM a bit more I think!

[@austinwills97]

Loving the vids. I am just starting out and getting heaps of ideas from them. Where do you sell your gold? I don't have enough to worry about yet but hope to soon.

[@BustedknucklesProspecting]

Plenty of gold buyers out there on Facebook.. just get your gold tested for purity before selling it, those gold buyers will down grade your gold purity to get it cheap,, most Australian gold is about 22k purity. I’ll make a video about how to sell gold one day

[@chaquisa1]

@@BustedknucklesProspecting Most informative video i have watched on the GM1000 Looked at dozens of you tube vids ,but you have hit the nail on the head.I bought one a few months back and use it in the Territory around the gold fields area where the ground is so hot the machine goes balistic haha ,but as you have explained i have been looking in the wrong spots all this time.Thank you for the great vid !!

[@outbacknomad9939]

Very interesting.

[@V6turbo]

While it's a good little detector I've found it tends to only find small gold and have gone back over areas that I had previously used the monster on with a 6000 and found deeper, larger targets.

[@BustedknucklesProspecting]

I found a 1.72 gram nugget with mine, seems to be fine to me

Those are called alligator ear forceps the 10 inch ones are great for getting into tight spots

Need to make a hook out of an old hacksaw blade to use as a scraper.

[@Hepta.Asteras]

Is it foolish to go to any dry river bed close to where I live and start looking for gold? Are there any basic features a dry creek must have before you even go out?

[@simonwaite5815]

Thanks for the very useful video Sean. I was just starting to regret my VLF purchase (Garret AT Max) and thinking a second hand PI may have been smarter. At least I can work the bedrock now whilst my better half pans the gravel. I have to say though the name "Gold Monster" is bit ambitious, perhaps a Gold......Small Animal?

[@frederickbierweiler8020]

good one , love your accent

[@rt-ks2bh]

You explain yourself really well ,,you would be a good tutor i reckon,,but for me these machines are a shocker,,sounds like a kids toy and could not put myself out all day stuffing around with this type of detecting,,,but you explained in your vid this is not for deep detecting,,,there are different machines that do a better job for a little more dough,,,thx mate and keep up the great work and appreciated

Does that mean the monster insnt good for nuggets? Just specks n flecks?

If it finds specs this small, it will scream off its head with a larger pickers & nuggets

I love your videos. Can you test the GM1000 inside flowing water ? I thinking about to buy one, but her over in Germany we have a lot of running creeks with bedrock under water.

[@يومياتمغربيةفيأستراليا]

Hi mate i realy need your opinion about GPZ 7000 in Goldfield is it worth it to buy it or not pls advise me thank you very much

[@BustedknucklesProspecting]

I can’t give you a fair honest suggestion as detecting has many factors to consider. All I can say is, the 7000 is apparently the best machine on the market but the 6000 is cheaper and probably do just as good of a job. If your a beginner starting out, I’d suggest a sdc2300 and learn with that before blowing 10k on something

Okay, it finds gold just fine, but does the Gold Monster 1000 also find monsters? Can it detect Drop Bears before they attack? No way am I ever going to wander around the bush looking down at the ground all the time with Drop Bears ready to pounce.

[@BustedknucklesProspecting]

Pulse induction.

1.78g You can find that nugget on my Instagram page. I only got footage of it seconds after finding it. And I found it only 50 meters downstream from this video location, hence why I’m in the same area swinging my detector in this video.

[@imschimidfadlek]

Nice thank you

[@leighlee681]

[@rockbottom1969]

Great video, great tips for a new owner of a Gold Monster 1000. But I have a question: at what point do you use the 10 inch coil? And do you have any problems using it at the beach looking for coins and such? Thank you. PS. I SUBSCRIBED.

[@BustedknucklesProspecting]

You will only change to the 10” coil, if you are really having trouble stabilising your machine In highly mineralised grounds, example: if you turn your sensitivity down, you start losing coil depth, so if you turn the sensitivity down to the 6th bar, you have already lost about 1 inch of depth. If you have to go any lower then the 6th bar, you would then just change over to the 10” coil. Reason being, the 10” coil is less sensitive and will handle the heavier mineralization in the ground at a higher sensitivity setting, The idea is to always get the most amount of depth from your coils in every situation.. Now if all this still happens with the 10” coil and you still can’t get it stable at a decent setting, it means you need a pulse induction machine and not a VLF machine. I could go on forever because there are so many different areas and scenarios that hold different answers. My best advice is learn everything you can about vlf machines and best places to use them because they are a completely different machine to the big pulse induction machines

[@rockbottom1969]

Wow! Thanks for the in depth reply regarding my question. It makes perfect sense to learn by trial and error how the Gold Monster performs in different areas of the world for that matter. Be it in the desert, over rocky terrain, searching over bedrock, or on the beaches of Mexico in my case. I bought my Gold Monster 1000 for me and my wife to use to get us out of the house and be active but mostly to hunt for the many treasures that lie beneath the surfaces waiting for us to discover and to explore. So thank you once again for the great videos that you and many of the other Gold Monster users post as well. They have all been very helpful and very useful for people like me who have a yearning to get outside and find gold and hidden treasures that are there for the finding. Keep up the good work mate. As they say in Spanish..Buena Suerte amigo Good luck my friend. ⛏⚒🤞🤞

[@darkcanyonprospecting1148]

How many grams did you get that day?

[@barryhh8217]

Black Sand..would that be tin? Still worth some money.

[@pulesjet]

MineLab are a bit pricey for me. I ended up with a WHites. Love to have a go on those grounds with my WHites GMT. The Black Sand Tracking it offers sure works good for tracking the Black Sands ribbons for panning. Here in Southern New Mexico some of our grounds are probably every bit as mineralized as the stuff you guys are dealing with.
