Tesoro Vaquero:

If you want to buy one metal detector that will fill your needs as a manual ground balance nugget shooter and a discriminating coin/relic detector then this is your baby. 

Relic hunters and prospectors want an adjustable ground balance. Competition hunters want a frequency shifter. Everyone wants a push button pinpoint to make targets easier to dig. The Tesoro engineers have combined all of these features into one machine that will handle just about any type of terrain that you may encounter. No other detector can match the Vaquero for adaptability, sensitivity and survivability.

 During the design phase of the Vaquero (pronounced va-care-oh), we knew that it was going to be a very hard working detector. It is designed as an all-around detector, able to do just about everything that any detectorist could want to do. Vaquero is the Spanish word for cowboy. When we think of hard work and the ability to take on any kind of tough job, we think of the cowboys of the old west.

The main part of the Vaquero’s versatility is its three and three-quarters manually adjusted ground balance. This will give the detectorist the power to set up his machine to best suit the mineralization conditions that he is working in and his personal treasure hunting style. The Vaquero adds an ED180 discrimination feature to filter the trash from the treasure and a Push Button Pinpoint that makes digging up the goodies that much easier. The discriminate knob is also used to switch into a threshold-based All Metal Mode.
