Any takes on what color my 13" Ultimate will be?

Has anyone recieved one recently?

I ordered one on Saturday and it looks like I will get it either Wednesday or Thursday.

My last one I bought last year was white but my hunting buddy has a black one.
 
I'll lay ya odds it will be a white one!-----I just called Kellyco Friday & the gal pulled it up on what stock they had of 13" Ultimate coils for the Explorers/Etracs.-----She said it showed they had 20 in stock & they were all white.:tongue:
 
I ordered mine this past Thursday and just got it from FedEx about an hour ago. I was told by the Kellyco rep that he had 21 in stock and they were all white. He said the only ones that are black are ones that people have painted themselves. Well I opened the brown box and inside that was the coil box with a picture of a white coil on the box. When I opened the coil box inside lay a beautiful BLACK 13" Ultimate coil! I think the Kellyco reps only see the white coil on the box cover and assume its a white coil inside. Clearly this is not the case. I did a video unboxing of it and you will notice my excitement when I open it to find the black coil inside lol.

Hey guys, I just received a phone call that pointed me over to this thread. After seeing it, I had Gene and I go out to look at these boxes, as stated, they are white on the box, we opened it up and....Black!

It looks as if the coil company has switched color without our knowledge. We are looking into it now, we are not sure if this is the new permanent color, or this was just a temporary/fluke from the coil company. But as of now, we apparently have some black Ultimate 13" coils. Not sure if it is going to last or not. Will update when we find out a little more information for you guys if it is the new permanent color or not.

So for the record, I went out and looked through every single one, and they are all black. So as of now, our current stock has 19 black Ultimate 13" coils. Whoever was misinformed, we do apologize. We also were unaware of the color switch. As I said, not sure if it will stay this way, but if you were waiting for a black one, we have them now. Next order may go back to white? Not sure.

It should be since we didn't get any new shipments in on these. Should be from the same stock. So, I suppose I can say to enjoy the anticipated black! :)

I also took the curiousity over to the Teknetics version of these coils. Only the Safari/Etrac versions are black. The other Ultimate's are still white as far as I see. Really weird...

Have become accustom to the white coil. Clean it with Oxy Clean on a wet paper towel and it gets the grass stains off. 4 months and a lot of field use.
 
It's like the key date of Ultimate coils. FYI I took mine out this evening for about 45 minutes to a section of the park I hit for a good month last fall. I got a no-date Buffalo. The great thing is I got 2 wheat pennies I know I missed with the stock coil at 9 and 9.5". One was an iffy signal by the numbers but the tones definitely said "dig me". So far I'm very impressed. Pinpoint seemed to be about the same as the stock coil.
 
got mine today and it is black and it ROCKS ... dug a copper memorial at 12" measured, plus two buttons, 4 wheats, and a 1911 Barber Dime. I love it and it is a joy to swing ... Stock Pro Coil is up for sale
