GPX 6000 people’s dig holes

[@RockAndOre]

Great video mate. New subscriber and fellow prospector/youtuber🤠 Can't wait to watch more of your work when I get a chance.

Looking back mate, was the GPX 5000 that much behind the today’s models?? If so by how much, thanks for your time. Cheers Greg

[@stoppsyboss260]

I honestly think, the 5000 is still a much better machine. The 5000 you have a lot more control over with settings where the 6000 you haven’t, the coil range for the 5000 is a lot better, 8” up 25” plus, so more depth if you want it to small shallow gold with 8” 7x5” ect. You have more control over the Sensitivity on the 5000.. yes the 6000 is sensitive to small gold but geez how fine do you want to be getting? I think I made the mistake selling my 5000 as I would have used it more than the 7000, 6000. The best thing about the 6000 is the weight, quick easy startup and how quick the tune is along with the wireless system.

@@stoppsyboss260 Well mate thanks for your honest answer. I have been tempted to sell my 5 but picking up the 7000 changed my mind. Thanks again boss if anyone did the hard yards you did. Cheers Greg

@@wdgreg589 the 7000 is good but geez it’s heavy. I found a lot of gold with the Zed but walking up hills and that, it killed my shoulders & back. If you could have the 3 machines, that’ll be ideal. Use the 5000 for a start, find a patch, clean what you can up with that, jump to the Zed, go back over it then jump on the 6000 to pickup the smaller gold. I had the 5000 & the Zed and found patches with the 5000, then used the Zed to go back over it. I did find few bits deeper with the Zed but I mostly used the 12” NF Evo on the 5000. I think if had a 15” on I would have picked them up

Crikey mate your finding everyone else's garbage!

[@guywood6574]

Did you ever have Mick at Detectronics mod your 5000?

[@stoppsyboss260]

No but he did go over my 5000 and fixed up a few small problems

@@stoppsyboss260 I’m in the USA had Mick mod my 5000 with the 12x8 Evo crazy does 6000 size gold and with the. 17 x13 Evo gives the Zed a tough time.Cheers

[@stoppsyboss260]

Mick is a friend of mine. I do know his work, works well. He actually helps Nuggetfinder with the new coils for the 6000 & 7000. If NF are having trouble to work something out. Mick will go and help sort it out.

@@stoppsyboss260 I have two machines that Mick has modified for me.There is a bit of a quirk in the new serial number smaller evolution coils working to full potential,but I guess Mick and Rohan are trying to resolve the issue.Hope so these mods are super with the proper coil plugged in.Cheers

God show stopsy!

Hey mate how do you reckon it compares to the 5000 with the nugget finder coils

[@stoppsyboss260]

The 5000 doesn’t miss much. I’m just going back over some areas that iv been over. The signals really pop. In max depth the 5000 will out do the 6000 with bigger coil selection. In my opinion I would have both machines. The 6000 packs up into a small package so it doesn’t take up to much room. Very lightweight, easy to use. Once you put the 14” dd the weight is all at the front. Every time iv taken the 6000 iv found gold with it. From half hour to couple hrs, I’ll bring home 3 to 14 bits home. If you’re up my way anytime I’ll take you out so you can use it.
