Garrett Ace 400 Review and Depth Test 

though I had some problem with sea water It also ru-vid.comUgkxa-FNYUOM93a388gi9a4brtSCEVmrHgJH land for finding any things very easily. (thought it would work as normal due to it being water proof within certain parts of the detector), on dry land and sand worked well. My first one, so still have lots to learn

I was watching the video on the ace 400 you made, it made understanding my machine a lot easier than reading the book. Thanks a lot.

Thank you for your video! I was given the Ace 400 by my husband for Christmas. I did a lot of research online and youtube videos like this one to pick what I wanted. I got the bundle with the pointer 2 which I love using and you can use it up to 10 feet under water. We have just started detecting due to the weather where we live. No big finds yet but so far...lots of bottle caps, bottle tabs, very thin wires which I keep hearing it doesn't do but yes it does, foil bits even 8 inches down which we were very surprised by, coins and some iron pieces. We will take it to a well used beach and area soon...right now I am getting comfortable with it and waiting for a little better weather. Pouring rain and snow between....well have to play with it on the days that work. Great fun with the grandson!

Excellent and informative review. I'm looking at getting into the hobby and have been studying brands/models and have decided that the ACE 400 was what I think I wanted. Your video sold me on it. Thanks a bunch!

Thanks for the testing the 400, answers most of my questions!

I've got a 400 ordered. just wanted to learn a bit about it. GREAT VIDEO!

Excellent clear and helpful review and demonstration. I believe that the 400 is the right machine for my needs. Thank you!

Excellent video. A fair test for known targets too. My wife gave me one for Christmas - and I’m “diggin” it.

Nice, intelligent, thoughtful and thorough review, meaningful depth test; all of which very well presented = *thank you!*

Very impressed with this machine...thanks for the great review! I'm going to get one for sure. Just have to wait a little longer and pay more up here in Canada..can't wait to get my hands on the 400i

I'll tell you I watched them all and hands down you got the best explained video on this , I got my son the 250 for Xmas and you helped me with the 400 thanks bro! Happy New Year

Thanks for the very good video on the Ace 400. I just purchased it today. The only experience I have with a detector is a Radio Shack model I used back in the early 90's. So far, I really like the way it works. This video will save me a ton of time trying to learn how to use it.

Thanks for the video man. Looking to start out detecting. Just picked this machine up. Your video really helped with the decision.

ty for the video. my bro and I are getting one of these. your video helped us newbies out:) subbed

There you go. Now I have ordered an ACE 400i. My 250 will be my backup detector. It is possible that many find it strange (and perhaps stupid) that I "only" upgrade to a 400i from a 250. Well ... what can I say ... my 250 has shown that ACE models are really good detectors for a fairly small amount of money. And when I saw this video, I realized that this is just all I need. For a very attractive price. The new detector should come within two weeks. No rush, though, here in Sweden (above the Arctic Circle), it will take a month before the snow is gone. Thanks for a great video. It helped me a lot!

Got this for Christmas! Good instructional video!

Live your vids brother man! Shout out from Houston Texas !

garrett should hire u to test there products lol but by far the best video on RU-vid very well done sir got all the info i need .cant wait to get my 400 best all-round for the $$$$$

And also you did a very very good job on the review very thorough

Yeah I got one ordered to and just wanted to see how it was working I'm very impressed can't wait to get it

Thank you 🙏 for this in depth test. I know it’s an old video, but I just picked up a good used Ace 400 from Metal Detecting Stuff out of TX for $160 plus free shipping. I’m still learning it. But from this review it seems I got a MD I can grow with for awhile. I started with a used BH Tracker IV that I got like new in box with headphones, manual, etc for $40. I’ve been happy with it and will keep it for a backup. New subscriber here. Dave in PA.

Thanks for the video, got one on the way and can’t wait to use it.

Ordered mine yesterday. .cant wait

thanks for the review..been looking into one of these..

Very helpful, I love my Ace 400, thanks.....

Just bought one. Thanks for this..

Great honest review. A + Thanks. Brian Smith

A lot of nice features for the money. I was looking at this machine for my wife but went with the Fisher F44 instead. GL&HH

Great Review. Thanks👍

Awesome job on the review man. I was sold on the Fisher F44 until I saw this. I’m sold. Thanks buddy!

Great review. This may be my next purchase.

great example of how to operate the ACE 400 really helped me

Very nice test Gene

Great video thanks.

Great vid , thanks

very helpful. VERY! thank you

I've watched the #350 pull some nice finds. The #400 looks to have raised the bar. Thumbs Up.

I sure would like to win the Ace 400 metal detector. Thanks for the great adventures and treasure hunts.

Thanks for the video, trying to decide between a Fisher and Garrett. I think your video showed me what to get.

Thanks bro!

Well, I’m sold!

great GARRETT!!!!!!Hello from RUSSIA!

I have the 400 as well only wish it had back light for the display...night hunting would be fun...warranty is over may see if I can open it up and add a back light...I have other dectors, so may present my findings to Garrett as an add on ....

Nice I saw you on the official ace 400 video. What frequencies does it use? I heard it has a few different you can use.

I was going to get a 150 then I'm like NO 250 then I saw the 300 NO 400 I got the 400

Nice video thanks..don't think the 400 or the 400i is available in the UK until April..

I just got that same coil for my ace 300 it seems like the same set up besides the iron audio

Hello, I really enjoy your reviews, you are very direct and clear. If you had $400 to spend, would you buy the Treasure pro, or the ace 400? Also, this would be your only detector for the next two years. Thanks again, I will continue to follow your videos. You are a gem.

11:06 gets detector outside

Great video man👍 Can you do a 2020 update?

Ciao , bravo bella recensione :-)

Ive had a few machines i couldnt use because in 6'3, and my excalibur is one of the machines that even with the straight shaft i still can barely make it work.

One question, at the end of the video it chimed and showed 35. Why does it do that? Took mine out of the box and it chimed and showed 35 till I turned it off.

the ace 400 and depth test. that was done with the 5 by 8 inch coil which is the best coil to use on these detectors bigger coils not as good

Changing my mind every time I'm in 2021 just about 1 ago 2020 been in lock down ,,was going get a pro.but now im thinking

great detector

Should I buy the Garrett Ace 400 or the White's Treasure Pro? I watched both your videos.

I was about to buy an ace 250 and I saw your video. I bought a 400 instead. You sold me. Thank you...clevor428gt

Very cool. still looks like the 250 , performance wise the same, added in iron audio and relic mode.

cool video, but I didn't see any depth tests done. emi usually a pi detector issue not a vlf, big likes here from Australia Thank you for sharing and happy hunting

Thanks, it's to be shown..

I have a 400i can someone explain to me why some times my detector randomly goes mad making noises. Like if I hit a metal object but it kicks of goin mad goin up and down the numbers.

Can this be good for Hunting ww2 battlefields? Do you think it can pick up Medals and Helmets and such?

John here my son got me the 400 love it fun very good detector but a little heavy for me ,good video.

how does this compare to a older whites xlt spectrum from the 90s ??

This is about a third of the price of the whites pulse tdi pro,detector I was thinking of getting, supposedly the white pulse tdi pro goes way deeper.

Im torn between this and the Fisher f44 for a newer detector, anyone want to chime in? My first and only machine is an old whites coinmaster classic so I need an upgrade.

dug a 77 dime and a 87 nickle at 8 plus inches.....this 400 is awesome

I bought a Fisher 44 which works great but I was always a Garret guy as was my Pops too , and I don’t know why I went to Fisher , and once I upgrade after a few decent times I get out , I will definitely get a Garret 2500 or something alike , That is a great Machine though , can’t beat the quality of a Garret, and being able to adjust your FQ is awesome alone on a nice starter machine , Great Video

Awesome I have my and real happy 👌🏻👍🏻👌🏻👈✌️🥑🇲🇽

Worth upgrading to this from the Euroace ? I have a makro racer and its broken. Not finding really shallow silver coins on any settings (we did a lot of tests) My plan was to use my euroace until i could afford the Xp deus, but now im considering just getting the Ace 400i and call it quits. Saving a lot of cash i could spend on something else.

Thanks sold me .for get the pro

My experience has been that just because the machine SAYS its a dime doesn't mean that it is. Just because the machine SAYS its a nickle doesn't mean it is. YOU HAVE TO DIG to fine out for sure. The coin reader on the machine is not always correct. Depth has a lot to do with the accuracy as to what a signal really is.

It will be interesting with Zero-disc, 0 in discri and full sensibility.

Nice vid! One question... What is the max depth of the Garret Ace 250? I´ve already searched everywhere and i can´t get an answer. Thank you so much!

good informative video enjoyed gl&hh

I have been interested in doing this as a hobby . I live kinda close to the ocean . I don't want to bring it to the wet sand area . Will this block a lot of the bottle cap or tabs and do a good job on jewelry and coin?

How did you manage to get a 400, thought they not released yet, did Garrett send you one for review?

I hunt relics with the 400....it is the best hands down

Hi CCH, nice video, do you know how deep this model can detect? Can it find silver coins 10 ft down in the ground?

In your opinion would this be a good machine for hunting around cellar hole sites , thanks

between this and whites treasure pro.what's the better detector in your opinion.thanks.

EMI shaker that needs a manual ground balance and a light. Fantastic for jewelry with Cors small coil, the freq. switch actually works with Cors.Freq. swith with the Garrett coil stinks 7 days a week. Reject 51 and you just rejected a gold chain.

Hey there never bought A detector before, when can I buy this in Canada? Or is it just not out to the public yet

Can you do a video showing how it deals with rusty and new beer bottle caps close to a silver dime or a copper penny? Notch out everything below 70. Just have it so it can pick up targets from 70-99. I want to see if it can discriminate out bottle caps COMPLETELY and still hear a copper penny or silver coin. If it can do that which I doubt it can then it is equal to an AT Pro at least in standard mode.

what does those numbers means on screen 97 and others numbers?

I am struggling on what to get my husband as a gift. He will be new to this and i'm interested in the 400 and the Garrett AT Pro. any thought?

I recently picked one up. I’m rather disappointed with it. The pin point feature is pretty bad. Also, the wing nuts won’t tighten enough to keep the coil in place.

i want this im intressted

Does this 400 have anyway to ground balance or not?

does ace 400 can work both on fredh water ang salty wet sand?

Compared to the AT PRO, giving the atpro a 10, how would u rate this?

Which is better on European soil? Garrett AT GOLD or Garrett 400I ??? Thanks

how does this detector compare to the whites treasure pro

Is the ACE 400 good on the saltwater beach? black sand?

why does rusted soda caps come up in the 90`s

Thanks for the info, but please, don't have your cam swinging....I'm dizzy!!!!

how does it compare to the whites treasure pro ?

I didn't see much info about bottle caps in this video the main thing the Ace series detectors struggle with. This can be very frustrating if you are coin hunting exclusively. Why do the Ace's see beer bottle caps (which are everywhere) as a high tone in the 80's just like a coin? I know they will say it's because they are round and flat like a coin...but my AT Pro blocks them out completely. The Iron discrimination on the At Pro is much better. I don't even need to use iron audio on my AT Pro even though it has it. I have seen other Ace 400 videos including the Garret official ACE 400 instructional video on RU-vid show how it deals with bottlecaps and it isn't good. This was the main reason I got rid of my Ace 350. The iron audio on the 400 helps compensate for this flaw a little by identifying it as iron but the fundamental flaw is still there...bottle caps shouldn't come in as a high tone.

When in Jewelry mode, is that both gold and silver jewelry? Sorry, but VERY new to detecting. I really can't "logically" understand how a detector can discriminate between gold and silver jewelry versus gold and silver coins.
