Popular Post Steve Herschbach Posted October 22, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 22, 2022 It’s just that picture early on before things got going. It’s been well attended. I got to chat with Mark Lawrie at the Minelab tent and look the Manticore over. Nice machine. The Axiom was also well thought of by everyone I showed it to. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridge Runner Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Steve Did you find the Axiom that was sent to you for testing was any different than what Garrett had there for the show and tell? Being you had the opportunity to talk with Minelab and hold the Manticore I don’t guess anything was said about a release date? The Best!

Chuck Works continues on the Axiom on tweaking and tuning the product. It’s not my place however to talk about the prototyping process or specifics of what is done along the way. Ultimately all that matters will be the final, finished product. I’m not kidding though, everyone that saw it had nothing but good things to say. Plus I am honestly surprised in general by how large the Garrett community is in Australia. I was thinking more like spring for Manticore, but looking at what they have now it’s more likely to be by end of year. Maybe. I honestly pay little attention to projections as anything, even a bad decal, can hold an item up. But it’s looking more like sooner than later, fingers crossed. 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridge Runner Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Steve Thanks for taking your time to reply to my two question. I’m sure the last two days has been a busy and a very vocal one at the same time. Garrett needs to have you and Gerry at that outing that Garrett is having April of 2023 . You must admit the flight is not as long as the ones you just made. Chuck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phrunt Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 It is fantastic to hear the Aussies being receptive to another player in the market, I thought Australia would be a tough nut to crack being rusted onto Minelab but perhaps that's not the case. Garrett seems to have an excellent product, and I only have good things to say about the quality of Garrett machines, at least for me they've been perfect, 4 detectors and 3 pinpointers and never once needed warranty. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted October 23, 2022 Author Share Posted October 23, 2022 I just had this impression it like Minelab all the way, but there are like 60 Garrett dealers here, and I met plenty of people at the meet who are “Garrett only” types. Very interesting to say the least, as I had imagined the high price as compared to what I see in the U.D. would be a non-starter. Of course the bulk of the sales are more in the Ace and AT class. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
