- Опубликовано: 15 ноя 2016
- Wanna know the difference between the Garrett Ace 400 and Ace 300 metal detectors? Well, if so I made this video to explain some of the differences as I see them. I don't talk about technical stuff, just what really matters to me like how and why to use certain programs. I also give out some great tips for general metal detecting.

I have the Ace 350 and the AT Pro. I'm not sure if you mentioned it. But the Ace 400 has the iron audio function which the Ace 350 does not. It's a great feature when detecting trashy sites. It helps keep your sanity if it's not too late already. Thanks for your hard work and advice.
Your honesty and integrity stand out way above many of the other comparison videos! Please please continue that type of video. It is so important for all of us to get a complete and unbiased opinion of whatever detector. Trust is a very difficult confidence to earn from vewiers in any kind of presentation. And you my friend are at the absolute top of my list and I personally love every one of the videos you have shared with us. Just look at the number of subscribers you have gathered from the metal detecting community. Again I would be very interested in any type of comparison or simply an honest opinion from you on any detector you use. Thank you for your effort and time you sacrifice to put all this together. The editing of all of this must be a tremendous chore. ATB, and GL and HH.
My 300 came today. Came here to see how to use it. Thanks Chig for doing all the videos and introducing me to this hobby. Keep up the great work.
I just purchased an Ace 400 and this info was really helpful.
Dont worry about the videos being long... long videos just mean more information.
Then you'll love the piano song "Four Minutes, Thirty-Three Seconds."
Thanks brother I just bought 2 of the 300 series me and the wife will be out today trying it out thanks for the vid very helpful
Thanks beau it’s 5 years since u made this vid and still helped me out with my machine!!
I really appreciate these longer videos that go into such depth. It is like going to a really terrific class. Thanks.
Does not sound like you are crazy about these two machines. Could you recommend a machine for under $400? My priorities are silver jewelry and silver coins. I also might want so do some shallow water hunting. This would be for a beginner who would like a intermediate machine. Last question,,,,, in jewelry mode, would that detect silver (pre 1964) and gold coins as well as gold and silver jewelry?
Another OverTaxed TaxPayer YEAH A ACE 300
A note on discriminating. Years back my buddy hunted with a basic Fisher detector, just a couple of knobs , with almost no discriminating . I was using a Garrett Freedom three with 4 knobs for setting discriminating. He always found plenty of nickels while in all our hunts I found only 2 nickels.. He dug more junk than I, but, found coins I would just miss. As Chigg said to much discrimination might not work in your favor.
Billy Bob OMG...your name is the same as the actor who Chigg looks like 😂
Chigg is much more handsome. ;)
If I had Chigg's looks, and Billy Bob's money, I'd be more that slightly happy !
I’ve had my 300 for about a year now and I love it!! I’m going to get a AT-Pro soon. Love your videos. I have been enjoying watching you for years and will continue. Thank you for the information and sharing your adventures with us.
I've been catching up on your vids this weekend. My daughter got married just before Thanksgiving and I've been playing catchup at work ever since. So....it has been a real treat to watch your vids! For an "armchair detectorist" like me, these videos are fabulous! I eventually will be buying a detector and gear so this info is great! I enjoy all of your videos. Your sense of wonder as you explore is so upbeat and positive. Keep up the great work.
I used the ace 250 for a while the gave it to my bro in law, he loves it. A really good starter machine. 300 and 400 are basically the same with different loops. Another thing you didn't mention is the ding dong tone when it's on a coin, or coin sized/shaped target. The tones for other targets is noticeably different than the coin ding dong.
Aquachigger hey would you sell those m4 tank shells if you still have them
Johnny popper 630 if the price is right I'm sure but any item is hard to let go, so it's gotta be a reasonable price the melt value is good but the history ..
Pala Luka I just want one
Dwight Watson ding dong
the 300, ding,ding ,ding,ding ding.its awesomeness in a ding ding.DING DING IS KING KING.
Ive used the ace 250 and 350. They are both good machines. No need to quibble.
You gave us some good info on these detectors, and I'm in agreement with it all. I bought the 400 because all my other machines were getting a little to heavy for my ageing body to swing for 4 or 5 hours at a time. After swing the 400 I really felt the difference. The larger coil is a little heavy and didn't balance the machine very well so I went ahead and bought the smaller one and now its perfect. The only thing that would make it more comfortable would be in the arm cuff extended up my arm a couple more inches.
Excellent, you took your time with each detector, explained their features and modes. The best was how everything worked. Beside about these two detectors, I found it more interesting a "class" between various modes with real world, above ground, test in how modes really make a difference. Unreal in one mode, coin I think, just passed over the gold coin. I use a ATpro in coin mode some of the notches. Sold me, I am going to try out the relic mode now. and get a smaller coil. A old saying, but a experienced Detectorist ( not a word) said the best discriminator is a shovel. Video not to long at all, learned a lot. Thanks!
Great job. I'd also.like to see a comparison between the $5k detector and the $80 units, like Bounty Hunter.
While in Japan I bought a 15 dollar detector , sent it to gramps an he found a G.W. button . Luk O the draw , I ges
J. Hunto's Garage I agree with this. Please show what the $8000 buys you. 👍🏻👍🏻
D o idea what $8000 buys. Chigg has one that's $5k.
*No...
J. Hunto's Garage I found a 1928 P Peace Dollar with a bounty hunter. Yeah, shocked the hell out of me also.
GREAT VIDEO-- TO BAD THE refection we couldnt see anything on the monitor
I agree 100% on the smaller 5 x 8 loop. I find I get almost the same depth have better target separation and much easier to swing.
Great video, Beau. I just purchased a used ACE 350 and this will help a lot with using it. I haven't been detecting for very long and am still learning. The 300 & 400 have the VDI - the 350 doesn't. Either one of those would be an upgrade for me even though I have the 350.
Well AC now you have stirred my curiosity with the unit that you normally use. Would you mind doing a video showing what makes yours worth the money and why you like them so much more. Thanks
Watched it thanks! That Deus is pretty cutting edge! Cool!
Aquachigger nolqq
I didn't know he is a dealer...
Yes please do more videos like this!
Cody Herbaugh hi hitler
I used to follow a million detectorists on RUclips, but the only one I can honestly say I consistently enjoy is you. Thank you for your videos. Keep them coming.
Great video!!! Totally pleased, and excited about your descriptions, and tips. I had an Bounty Hunter 25 years ago. Bought it used in a pawn shop. No instructions, so I had problems just running the machine, and apparently the unit had its own issues. It made noises when you would shake the unit around in the air, as you described in this video.
I've recently been looking for a new interest that would take over my firearms hobby. Something that would allow time to be with family, relax, and enjoy nature. This particular video has helped put me back on track with Metal Detecting.
Despite the trust I lost in the metal detecting equipment in the past, which was partly my fault, for not seeking help, your video has changed my skepticism.
I've watched many Metal Detecting videos in the last month. But, none gave me any thoughts of ever trying them out again, except for your video. It actually gave me the thought of....try Metal Detecting again!!! So. I will be purchasing one for my new hobby.
Thank you for your excellent video.
Thank you for this video. I'm actually considering an Ace 300 or 400. Yes, I would like more videos like this. Any tips or info would be welcomed by me.
Ken Karnes
Yep , definitely looking for advice from someone more experienced 😎👍🏻
Ken Karnes I have a 300 and enjoy it. Lots of fun
I also have the 300. I’m a rookie but making great finds with it👍
The 350 is best.
Ok I’ve had the ace 250 and some of the older Garrett GTI and ads Machines I can say if you are going to get a Garrett the 400 is really a good starter I agree with the 8/5 coil but it does help to use the large coil in places like Fields and pastors where you don’t get a lot of targets but for the money if you are not sure of getting in the hobby or just want to find something you lost a used pawn shop detector that has pin point is sometimes the best way to go I personally picked up a bounty hunter time ranger for $40 and it didn’t even look used
Thanks for the information!
Thanks for the helpful tips! I just recently began metal detecting, and chose the Garrett Ace 300 for my first machine. I've been hunting in coin mode, and didn't realize how much good stuff I could be missing because of it. I'll be in relic mode from now on! Thanks again!
I'm getting one for my grandson (he's 7)im new to metal detecting but my grandson is at the perfect age to start enjoying the outdoors ,my granpa was my mentor and it was the best times in my life,I'll look in your website to buy one ,thank you very much .
Thank you Garret... very classy.
Chigg, great video keep them coming....
OK at 6:28 the dude gets to it, but then it was funny watching him till then. :)
This guy just loves talking to himself. He uses the camera to let us watch that conversation.....Haha
Just wanted to thank you for the end depth of how to use metal detecting on the Garrett 400&300. It has that me understand a lot about them and other machines. I am new to this and I appreciate the information. I just turned 60 and decided to have a new hobby and I chose metal detector. I live on a fixed income and I know I would never be able to afford that but I lease I understand what to expect on these machines and the sounds. I truly enjoy your videos and your adventures. You are a very entertaining. I will be getting probably a cheaper one because I can't afford that being on a fixed income but maybe one day I will if I find something really nice and I can sell. Continue with your videos and stay safe . PS sorry about the last part it's just the mother in me.
Thanks for the comparison. The coil factor now makes sense. Would also love to see how you do some of your research on sites.
Great information Beau. I guess when it comes to coils, size does matter. Would like to see a video like this for the AT Pro.
Brilliant vid mr chiggles iv been waitin on a decent review and would certainly love to be one of your winners gl&hh
Scottish Chigg army 🇬🇧
Where abouts in Scotland?
East Lothian just outside Edinburgh ✌🏻️
I'm over in Ayrshire myself, but awesome to know I'm not the only Scotsman watching Mr. Chiggs.
He's got an amazing Chanel been a fan of his vids for a few year he's a proper genuine guy and mayb some day mr chiggs will visit Scotland and do some river treasure hunting 😊 what do you say mr chiggs ✌🏻️
thank you this video answered alot of questions for me, because I was planning on getting one for my grandson for Xmas
Thanks for this video. I had the 300 some years ago, wish I had seen this then. Now I'm going to watch what you like to use. I'm in the market for a new machine. Would like something I could take in a stream without worrying about getting wet though.
Thanks for being here and all the valuable information you give. Maybe I'll start my own channel but would mention you often in it!
I like how you "train" us. More please!
I was wondering if you can put the heads under water? I take it you can't put the whole unit under water like you do with the ones you normally use.
Thanks
Dave Brittain yes that is a good question
According to Garrett's website the coil is submersible :)
Thanks I liked your demo.I am thinking on the 400 .you have been a good help.
I just started using the Garret AT-pro (after using the Teknetics T2 - "which I loved BTW lol") so I'm still figuring out the AT-pro, but the entry level ACE models might be good for my kids to get started, I'm impressed with these ACE models in relic mode. Interesting overview Chigg, thanks!
Thank you so much Chig. I have actually been looking at those exact models on Amazom for my first metal detector purchase. It was great to see these in action. I am curious if these are able to be used in water or not and if these are good for detecting gold/silver ore? Definitely entering to win the 400!
P.S. Would love more tip videos!
willthefuneverstart Thanks for the reply! So I would be able to submerge it up until the control box? And I'm just getting familiar with how these machine actually function so I'll do some read ups on that auto-ground balance you mentioned. I live in the mountains on the boarder of Canada and I am trying to decide what machine to purchase. I'd basically be using it in abandoned mines and streams. Dunno if that helps strike up any ideas.
*АСE 400 отличный прибор! Привет от искателей из России!*
I watch all your videos and really enjoy watching them. Thanks for sharing
Thank you, Sir. It’s gonna be relic and jewelry mode from now on. Thank you for the demonstration regarding to coil size. It brought me information that I have not seen before.
Did you give away the metal detector yet ? - I need one !
Hope you're happy. I'm a sub and I liked the video.....and I like turtles
Bought a Ace 400, love the tips ! I was looking for a video exactly like yours..
I learned alot! Thanks...
Great video AC...it's always good to spend time watching your presentations!!
Thanks!
Enjoyed the teaching and instruction. Please continue especially with the garrett 300 and 400. New to medal detecting. Thank
Thank you, thank you, thank you... I'm new to detecting and this was just what I was looking for. I've searched YT to find these type videos and they are a little lacking. I would enjoy seeing more of these type videos as well as the current videos you do.. Great job !
Very interesting to see the actual difference between detectors! Thanks.
I'm planning on buying the 400. This gave valueable information, thanks.
Mr
Aquachigger, I am a recently new subscriber but I was hooked after the first few videos. I served 8 yrs active duty army airborne infantry and have been diving for 15+ years. I think it is absolutely amazing that you find the treasures that you do. I must say, I have watched nothing but your videos on RUclips for the last week and I am absolutely inspired. My birthday is next week and I have told my wife that "I must have a garret at pro. " or I will purchase one on my own! haha. I live in upstate sc and as I'm sure you know the confederacy flourished in these parts. I'm extremely excited to start hunting my local Saluda, Pacolet (near Cowpens battlefields), and the lucious Green rivers as soon as spring arrives. Please keep a "good ole boy" veteran who aspires to reach your level of river treasure hunter in mind. I would absolutely love to be able to start detecting this winter or "late fall." Looking forward to your future videos and best of luck brother.
Would the smaller coil make that much difference on the AT PRO as well? I have the PRO and have been considering getting the smaller coil for it but wasnt sure if it would be worth the money spent? Your opion would be great. Thanks in advance.
Darcy
Thanks aqauadigger. You clarified the different modes and the discrimination of each. Ive been using jewellery mode and now will change to Relic mode. Thankyou
Your videos are very cool. You have a great way that it’s like we are there talking with you. So yeah, as a newbie, I want to hear more trucks and tips on detecting, distinguishing sounds, etc…. Great stuff. Keep it coming
No worries on long videos Chigg.I'll watch the whole length anyday.This was a most informative one on comparing the 300 & 400.I can understand a v demo much better than trying to figure out instuctions from the written text.Will have to try for your giveaway.
Not in the market to upgrade yet but when I am I will be keeping all you say in mind.
Thanks for the knowledge you impart would love to see want you think about super cheap and super expensive machines.
You gave a lot more useful info than some others that have done comparisons. Keep doing these types of videos, even people that have used metal detectors for a while can get good info from these videos. thanks for answering some of the questions that I've had about these machines.
Hello Aquachigger, first time to comment but watched many of the awesome video's you make. Today is my 65th. birthday, that's right my number is 11-17-51 haha. Never had a detector but always wanted one, so one of these would be a good start.
Keep them coming...
Best review yet of these two machines. Thanks.....
great example of better target separation with the smaller coil......BTW what was the signal (number) on that $1 gold coin???rather what do you think it would show on the atpro?
So the 5x8 really helps in trashy areas picking out the good stuff. So I should purchase one for my AT Pro or should I try the off brand coil co.?
SPECTACULAR video. my 10 year old daughter loves your channel and wants one of these Garretts. since I know poop-all about them I've been searching for info and reviews. by a long shot the best one I've found.
thanks for getting us interested in relics and being out of the house. keep up the great content!!!
I really like your videos. You speak in a very clear and informational manner. The information you provided taught me a lot about metal detectors in general and I greatly appreciate it.
Good explanation, nice job, easy to understand... Too bad that we don't have a choice of loops at time of purchase...
Loved your educational video on the machines.Can't wait to enter and maybe even win to start metal detecting here in PA!! Thanks Aquachigger!!
I live in an area where there was a lot of copper mining in 1800s to early 1900s.
How well would either of these metal detectors work here?
The reason I ask is because there is also a lot of iron.
There is boatloads of copper just lying around, and a lot of unhunted ground I can think of just off the top of my head.
I had a fisher m-scope that worked great until it was twelve years old. I am about to retire and have been looking to get a new detector for my new time requirments. This would put me on a good track. I enjoyed the review and the way you explaned the operation of the two. Seeing how they work from the above ground level explaned well how they work under ground. Yes, it would be nice to see and expland how your equpment that you use works, so we can determined what would for others.
I’m a beginner, and I would love to try one of them out. Great review
Thanks for the info about the 400, especially the information about the different size coils.
that was a great way to explain the difference between the two .I am thinking about getting in to the hobby to enjoy the out doors even more .I do a lot of fishing and some time it's to windy .
I have the 350; thinking about going with another machine. I looking at the 400, the F44, BH Pro, and T 4000. Which do think is a good value with the greatest ability for general Hunting?
Your explaining is very important to most of us outside of the professionals . I have been watching you for a while and find education is paramount in this field. I know first hand these machines can drive one a little crazy.
Keep up the great work, HH GL & God bless.
Watching your videos with my first cuppa tea in the morning always a good start to my day.
Beau, Thanks for showing us the Garretts 300 and 400 and the best setting and coil info. I know that I personally enjoyed the information. Thank you for your time and energy making videos.
I appreciate your honesty and knowledge about these machines, the hobby, and life in general. There are not many people that would openly admit that they would never use a product of a sponsor lol. That's exactly the kind of stuff I've come to enjoy about your videos.
I’m getting an Ace 300. Would a larger loop (if I had to cover a whole beach) fit one? I just want to know incase I wanted to try one. Would you be able to put a loop the size of a 400 on the 300?
I just purchased Garrett Ace 300, this was an excellent overview! Thank you!
I just bought a Ace 300. How has your detector been doing. I hope I made a wise purchase.
Chig, I think that you doing other vids for beginners and the novice crowd would be a good thing! I really enjoy your style of educating, and of course all the hunting videos are awesome! It really doesn't matter if someone else has covered the subject or not. You may have a completely different audience. There is my two cents on the subject, and you didn't even need a machine to find it! :)
Really enjoy all your videos. I have been trying to determine which metal detector would work best for me. The videos you have posted are very helpful.
I havent heard Whippoorwills in a long long time thanks for adding them Beau
when i was a kid i used to in the summer go to sleep listening to them ,
and when the Bob Whites started calling we knew to come inside for supper
and then the Screech Owls
Love your videos. My daughter and I watch everyone , she's 4 and love to watch river treasures. says hold your breath anytime she goes swimming or in the bath lol thanks
Would you recommend the ATX over Minelab SDC2300 or GPX4500? I need something to compliment my XP ORX and Nokta Makro Gold Racer Pro and am thinking PI. I live in Colorado and prospect the rivers and hills.
Hello. I was wanting to know how the 300 would do with the iron and penny with its stock coil. would it be able to discriminate like the 5x8?
I loved it! Anytime you want to do a tips and tricks video or a review on a machine, i'm all over it. Nice job.
Wow, what a down to Earth and informative vid. As a long time sub, your love of our earth & wildlife was THE major inspiration to hit the road fulltime (in a tiny rv). I will eventually obtain a detector. I know these adventures will surpass any experiences of the 23 year worldwide military career. Thank you for being a gentleman and sweetheart.
i am glad you showed about the big loop and smaller loop.i never would thunk it.
Great review. I bought a larger head for my garret and agree with you. I generally use the smaller one more often. The only time I change to the larger head is when beach detecting to cover more ground.
Great information, learned a lot about the settings. Thank-you!
I have been watching detector videos for some time and even researching up the hardware. I honestly found your information very useful. Thanks for doing this. Looking forward to the opportunity to enter for the drawing.
I understand you were demonstrating depth, and we could see the test pieces but does anything change with the density underground?, signal strength? Clay? Under rocks etc?
great test! A friend of mine loaned me his Ace400 to test out for him and this gives me some good info to share.
Great detail orientation my friend.. Keep up your awesome video's.
did you also get a free cold coloured coin ?
i did with my 300i and i cant seem to find stuff about it on google.
and ive seen all unboxing video's but onley one had a coin like mine.
do you annything more about it?
or can someone explain?
thank you for putting this video out my kids gave me money towards a metal detector for Christmas and I've been trying to decide which one to buy because I can't afford a $5,000 machine and your video was very helpful
yes please do . give some more demonstrations on the metal dectectors
I am curious as to why you didn't use the Iron Audio function in your last test vs the smaller loop?
Yes do not worry about the length of the video have learned a great deal from the lessons you taught on the Garrett 300 and 400 don't have a metal detector at the moment but loved watching your video. Please show more technical videos like this thank you so much
Thank you for info I just bought the 300 a week ago.
