i am thinking about buying a used garrett ultra gta 1000 metal detector for a back up
Was it a good detector in its time? I was wondering what it is worth - what it cost new...
How good was it new? Is it worth buying?

Good detector in it's time? Yes.
Cost when new? About the same as the GTP1350, todaY- $550 give or take.
What is it worth now? Hard to say. There are a lot of variables. Id say no more than $300.
How good was it? About like a 1350 today, ie, pretty good.
Worth buying? Depends on the price.

I was a 1991 Ultra as my Primary. Dont know what its worth but it still gets the job done here in Garland Texas.
If the job stays stable I will get a 250 in 2010 for a back up to my Ultra.

Good Luck HH

It was and still is a great detector especially if you have the one with Power Master Circuitry.

It has the Power Master circuitry, which gives you about 20% greater depth.
