A lot of people tell us that they have trouble trying to figure out how to setup and operate the Gold Bug 2 so these are my best settings for using one in the field to find that very tiny Gold. They can also be used in the Hard Rock mines to find that beautiful specimen Gold too. And for more vids on metal detecting watch this vid th-cam.com/video/YJRRVRp5WCo/w-d-xo.html. Let us know what settings you like to use on the GB2 and smash that like button...SMASH it HARD.
Like any machine, you have to get out and practice practice practice! Then practice some more. You'll understand what it's telling you and get a lot more than frustrated. Grabbing up shiny makes it all worth the time spent learning.
Nothing like a Jeff Williams & Slim video Saturday morning. Thank you, Jeff, an Lila for another great video. Little chunky pieces has not traveled far from the source.
Thanks Jeff. I bought my gold bug 2 the week before you switched to the gold monster. I have found no gold with my detector 😂. I've been hoping you would make this video, much appreciated!
I love the way he teaches, I can learn so easy from him. He is all facts and no fluff. He knows what he knows and I think it shows, from the hat on his head to the boots on his toes, he"ll even tell ya where the schist flows!!!
@@Askjeffwilliams mabe your true calling was to be in the movie business? You have the right timing as a actor and the ability to produce videos on a tight budget.! There isnt enough time to do it all ! Mabe this channel is your life movie production and that good enough ?
I smiled the whole video. I've used a gold bug since 1994. And the minelabs and whites I find gold the arm swingers leave behind. Jeff you know I love my bug. Using a gold bug is like cooking a steak. Low and slow. Sorry. Them other arm swingers think they can fly through a patch. Oh well. I loved the video. It was a gold show in salt lake city I met the folks from fisher. Had my photo taken. With my gold. Gosh fisher isn't even owned by the family now. I'm old. 😂❤
Almost bought one of these, but ended up going with the Makro Gold Cruzer. Ain't found no gold yet, but it is definitely a sensitive machine. Found a mangled up Prince Albert can about one foot down in a prospect dump. The fact that nobody else had dug it up tells me that nobody else has been detecting in that area.
Pro tip: Bring a small Shop-Vac (with narrow tip attachment) and a UPS. Vacuum the dirt in the cracks, you'll get all the small dirt/gold to pan out, later, and reveal the nugggets at the same time. Lots of small gold in them cracks!
I run my GB2 in silver mine waste piles. The 6in. coil gets in tight places and at 3lbs I can swing it all day. I ground balance on low volume and run with the iron discrimination on , normal soil , sensitivity on max and no headphones...gotta listen for bears , no joke ! My favourite noise is WEE-WEE sweet even tone on front and back-swing. WEE-WOO not good. PEEP!-PEEP! Blasting Cap , really not good !! Coil-cover and a hard-case are a must. Thanks Jeff
I love my gold bug 2. Check in the dig pit bottom of dry wash area. Found a nice picker in there. Lead shot is used to discourage metal detecting as well.
Great job on the set up, threshold is where it's at anything disturbes the sound check it further. Shure you will find about everything there is to a point... Then you start realizing the difference in the sound for each lil goodie out there. All part of the game. Thanks for sharing brother.
Always Kool advice. Your my favorite on U-Tube. Great insights to the world of prospecting. I think I did the Patron thing right this time. I'll buy that for a dollar...
I was a Minelab & First TX Products/ Fisher deal back around 2009. Ive owned a couple PI but I always ended up using my GB2 more than the PI's. The GM 1000 is a great machine but i still like the GB2 more. Probably because i have many more hours listening to it.
Ive got an old garrett its green and has a tray insert for 9 volt batteries it takes 8 or more i dont remember off hand i never could figure out how to use the thing but i do know it was a top of the line machine in its day.
YOU are the MAN , Jeff. Always there to help us and advise us in every way you can. I am only sad that I don't live near you and could invite you over for a Bar-B-Q and call you a close friend. GBU and your lovely wife.
In 2007 I had an extra $800 burning a hole in my pocket for a new VLF gold detector. I had to choose between the GMT or the GBII. I did pick the GMT but I always wanted the GBII. Now 17 years and many detectors later, the price just dropped on the updated version of the GBII so much I couldn't resist and had to get it. I can't wait to get out with it.
Salts give false readings when detecting water with moisture meters. Thank you for the great demonstration and information. I understand how to calibrate a Gold Bug 2 metal detector now. You gotta get down to the bed rock. 🤠⛏️
Always loved your show sure wish my health was a little better it would be great to spend time with you question I have a older bounty hunter metal detector would it be compatible to the more modern detectors
Can you please Jeff do one on the Gold bug pro as well? I can't be the only one that's having a little bit of the same problem. Any way maybe I will try those settings on mine. Thanks for the inspiration!
Fisher actually had a different Gold bug 2. It was a great machine but much too complicated for the average Joe. So they went back to the original Goldbug with just a couple tweaks. These are great machines You can actually hear the difference in between the different minerals there’s that precision especially if you’re advanced ! My first goldbug was 000327 I got in the early 80s I I own about every gold detector there is the Goldbug is a machine of its own and always will be!
Hi jeff. I too have a GB2 upon your advice of about 3 years ago. but I think you were using the 10-inch coil on that video. The 10 inch coil is that much long while the 6-inch coil is 6 in Long. Can you please confirm which you prefer? If it's the one in the video then it is the 10-inch. Thanks
Thank you Jeff I have some similar areas I’m going to hit when I can break away from work. I just got the gold bug 2 with the digital display and there is a wide range of ground balancing to dial in if I press down on the knob it brings me to 75 It seams to be harder to get to where I need to be. I’m going back up in today to test a little bit but it’s not the hot spot I found with all kinds of sign. There is a back fill I can’t tell if it was a tester hole or a played out claim. Lots of quarts and trumpet. And Burros loll. Maybe they can lead me to gold like rich hill
I always loved this video! My all time favorite is the video you made of your dad! I love that one so much❤ I lost my dad when I was 4. I always wondered what it would have been like if he had lived. Would me and him go on gold hunts! Sometimes I pretend your dad is my dad & he is teaching me how to be a Great Prospector! I love your channel Jeff! I so wish wish all my soul i could come out west to places like this & just explore! Until that day I continue to hunt New England untold treasures! If you ever in Southern Vermont definitely get ahold of me! I can bring you to a old gold mine that was a production mine for a short period of time. I could tell you so many stories about the old timers around here. I'm sure you know gold is a byproduct of copper. Check this out! 3 different copper mines in New England produced ' if I remember correctly ,300.000 tons of copper. My question is> where is all that gold?
You didn't mention using the GB2 in a creek. Is that practical or are there other machines that work better? I tried in the Philippines a little last year but 5 days of rain and landslides kept me from making it to a particular creek. After the water level dropped to normal I looked down a small river we were driving across and could see 7 different groups panning for gold.
Hey Jeff, if money was no object, would you still pick the gold bug 2 for what you are doing in your location? If I’m gonna save money for a good piece of equipment, I wouldn’t mind paying more (minelab??)
for bedrock ....toss up between the GB2 and the GMM 1000 ...for Hard rock mines the GB2 ....for pin pointing placer location GM1000 and for find Placer Gold GPX 6000 and the GPZ 7000
Great info as always Jeff👍🏻 Do you know if there's a substantial difference between the original gold bug and this gold bug 2? I've got the original one...not too sure about the age of it. Looks basically the same, but some of the controls are slightly different.
Jeff what is your opinion on PI machines and Gold? I have watched guys from Australia outback goldfields killing it with pi machines. I know ground minerals have huge affects on your object you detect.
Gold bug or gold monster? I like the monster better, never used either of them . However seen both used as far as operation I prefer the minelab 1000 gold monster, I can't afford either, I'm going to attempting building one, start with a cheap detector about $40-$50, to use the basic structure, the handle, cuff, tube. Then 3d print coils and covers I'm thinking 4.5" coil, and a 2.5"-3.5" x 10"-12"roughly, and a few other coils to experiment with. A6" pancake coil, and 5-6" cylinder coil, that is about 3-4" thick , and looking to run it between 60khz and 100khz. Possibly running 2-3 frequencies to help with discrimination,use a red led for iron likely targets, and blue for gold possibly targets, I really want to get out and hunt gold. In on 25-45 minutes from the Carolina slate belt, and there was a couple gold mines about 20-45 minutes from here. Depending on exactly where it was, but this was 1790's to 1850's. In ash county NC. The geology report says the ore was exceptional mostly gold with some copper they mined both. And something else, (can't recall,) $30+ to $76 per ton of gold in 1840's/50's dollars, the vein pinched and swelled and I think it got to the point it pinched and wasn't financially possible for a mining company to work not enough vein for them to profit, but at $2000/oz it is possible great for a few guys hit it hard for a few years. Pull out some $hiny $$$ I'd like to find out! As easy as nitro is to make, haha😮😮😮 boom💥
I love my gold bug 2. Recently i took it out to start the season and I noticed my threshold knob doesn't do anything. The detector still works but obviously not at its best. I've been searching online but can't find any answers. If anyone has had a similar experience id love to hear back.

Hey Jeff 1 question what happened to the Gold Monster ? And I got a solution to save your breath get a cheap Camera lens cleaner kit with a bellow to blow the cracks with
I have a Gold Bug 2 in need of repair. My ex left the batterys in it and stored it in a non-climate-controlled unit. After the divorce, I wanted to continue with prospecting and metal detecting. Unfortunately, the connection post on the left side broke out due to the corrosion from the battery. I have called a few places around my area, Upstate SC/NE Georgia, but no luck. I really miss getting to spend time outdoors, metal detecting, gold panning and rockhounding.
If you're technically inclined, find a schematic of a detector circuit, it will tell you all you need to know. Some chips will do most of the work for you.
Now if you been watching Jeff and Slim for a while, you wont need to be told that this gold from the bedrock didn't travel too far. and, It came from red material. We are detectives too. Source material gets stuck in the scratches on the Gold much like it does the scratches in that spoon or pan.
A lot of people tell us that they have trouble trying to figure out how to setup and operate the Gold Bug 2 so these are my best settings for using one in the field to find that very tiny Gold.

No worries I took it out on union pass and it balanced great. I wasn’t expecting to find any color but did zero in on casings and one mangled bullet
Like any machine, you have to get out and practice practice practice! Then practice some more. You'll understand what it's telling you and get a lot more than frustrated. Grabbing up shiny makes it all worth the time spent learning.
Same settings as you. Dont like the new digital gb2 it doesn't have the fast tune knob like the older version.
Hey, will this locate flour gold? That's most of what we have in Michigan. Thanks.
Nothing like a Jeff Williams & Slim video Saturday morning. Thank you, Jeff, an Lila for another great video. Little chunky pieces has not traveled far from the source.

I know ground minerals have huge affects on your object you detect.
P.I. machines go much deeper and can handle hot ground better than VLF machines ....the best one we think is the GPZ 7000

yes

Now if you been watching Jeff and Slim for a while, you wont need to be told that this gold from the bedrock didn't travel too far. and, It came from red material. We are detectives too. Source material gets stuck in the scratches on the Gold much like it does the scratches in that spoon or pan.
