Hey Stoppsy,
The 11" Mono combination with the 4500 is a winner, good luck with your future finds.

Hi
Merry Xmas.
Good to see your new detector.
It was a good price.
The hip stick will be good for you.
I have the GPX 4500 too.
I hope to see some great Videos next year.
When I saw your GPX 4000 was for sale, I held my breath then I saw the New Detector and thought “Great” you were Detecting again with your New GPX 4500.
So have a great New Year
Regards Neale

i havn't got to take it out for a run as the weather has been shocking. i did take it out when it had stopped raining for a few mins when the rain had stopped and i dug a target down 12" (22 bullet head) i was impressed with that as it was clear signal but still have to learn everything over again but shouldn't take to long.

Great buy Stoppsy, good luck.
Here is our set up with the 4500.
Two loops on front D's, the bungie is connected with detector weight distributed across both shoulders. Adjust bungie so the coil hovers just above ground while not holding detector. Only requires steering the coil when swinging the coil, less tiresome with 20" coils.
Pick with super magnet in end of handle hanging from chest. Magnet on pick blade no longer used. Spoon is readily accessible when target is out of ground.
No metallic items below waist line to interfere when swinging the big monos.
