    Minelab discontinuing Sov GT and Explorer SE Pro?

    If a few other detecting sites are to be believed it seems that Minelab will be discontinuing both the Sovereign GT and the Explorer SE Pro on December 31st, 2012.

    Not sure yet if this is true or not, but some American dealers/reps have been telling their customers that this is the case. Can any Minelab dealers out there confirm this?

    Thanks for the info Stewart, if that is right then it looks like either they are cutting down on their range of models or looking to fill the gap with new ones, can't think they will leave a mid range gap.

    My guess is that is right, that both are going. Think that the ET will be there mid range for now and the Terra's the entry level.
    Both need replacement and i think they will share a stem and box but have different levels of tech. But what do i know?

    Makes sense Nukem, one things for sure, there will not be any info forthcoming for a while until a new model is about to be launched, R&D does not stand still. Could be some bargains towards the end of the year as dealers get rid of old stock on these models.

    Just posted the official word in Minelab Corporate News. Sad to see the end of an era, both are still great machines! But we move on.
