Simplex has arrived!

[Jeff in Pa]

Got it put together, done some air testing just because. Had to hear what she sounds like!
I like the feel of it. Its much lighter than my Anfibio but I expected that. The Anfibio is built like a tank, the Simplex.. not so much. It feels good. Once I can get it out and actually hunt with though, I figure that lower rod has got to go. The carbon fiber has to be an improvement.
Anyone here have the carbon fiber shaft?

I think you will be pleased with the Simplex. I have carbon fiber shafts on both of my coils and really like them. I didn't really notice a big problem with the original shaft but I know there has been a lot of discussion about them. I do not notice any wobble with the carbon fiber and there is a weight difference.

Best of luck to you. I think you will like the machine. Now I haven't had any problems with the original shaft but that's just me.

Thank you all for the kind words!
I hope all of us have a great year of detecting!!

Jeff, Best of luck to you with the New Simplex. Let us know what you think of it when you get a chance.

After a year of swinging the Simplex, the lower and upper shafts got very wobbly. I ended up getting the longer upper shaft and the carbon fiber lower shaft and it made a huge difference. It wasn't very expensive to replace those and the shaft is rock solid now.
The nice thing about the Simplex is that you can turn it on and go with very little set up. It just performs great right out of the box without having to push a bunch of buttons. Good luck with it!
