That is a lot of machines for one guy. You must be a octopus to be able to use all those machines. I can only swing one at a time.
I think your moving to the beach to start rental service

:laughing:

I had 11 now 7, if i was going to start a rental service i would have kept the low end machine's, and rented to Felix so he could find more zinc's howboutit :laughing:

2 multi purpose, 3 water with different coil's , 1 is a PI,1dry sand, and a F75se for relic, all detector's serve a purpose, your joke has no Merritt, :roll:

PS If you really want to find out the difference between the Blue & the sword model's, find out for yourself, Captain Silver will sell you the horseshoe for 1000.00 a machine, roll the dice howboutit :hornetsnest:

PS Felix you might as well start classes, since your machine's are deadly on pennies . all the rookie's will be impressed because at least they will find something :laughing:

CTX3030 PS FOR THE THREAD MAKER, THE HEAD LINE SHOULD HAVE READ, OLD TECHNOLOGY VS NEW TECHNOLOGY THE TRUTH IS THE SWORD CAN'T BEAT A BLUE..............

Earl, I have all the parts to restore the other Sword, just haven't got around to finishing it. Tape was to not damage the housing when removing the knobs, the Swords with red/black knobs are press fit...The nut behind the knobs matters more than the machine used :yes:

Now, seeing you actually USING your gear collection is something the forum has been waiting on for a long time :laughing:

We all still love you though!

Differences

Biggest differences: Tubes, Coil, Tones, battery pod ears and the boards none of which are not interchangeable, battery pod is if the ears are cut at about a 45 degree angle. I am still using one of the original Swords, it and it's new RNB XL3000 now reside on a Carbon Fiber shaft. It also has my 10" coil as it's WOT bit the bullet after some 3000 hours in salt water. I bet Andy Sabisch had fun with this unit, I know I have in the 25 years I have been swinging it.

The Excalibur 800, 1000, and II have seen improvements with stability, sensitivity, component tolerances and minor circuit changes. But not all please me, especially the knobs and coil cable change. The change I like the most was the comfort of the headphone pads.

What I would like to see is external cable headphone connectors as standard equipment. A different mechanical stop for the PinPoint control. Arm cuff strap standard. Straight shaft with over/under mounting. Smaller for less water resistance. Until then...I'll be happy and use the two I have.
