nice find! bill wyman, the most ancient (and my favorite!) stone of all at 71. looks like his second greatest work, next to the fretless electric bass.

edit: lol, signature metal detector.

Who's up for a group buy?

That's bloody awesome. The site states that he's had much success as a treasure hunter. I wonder what kind of stuff he's found?

I do recall a story a few years ago, about a man in the UK who dug in his backyard, only to find a small cache of ancient Roman coins worth an absolute fortune. It's out there for the curious (and dedicated... and lucky!).

what the heck. i have to get this asap for the flight over to the national meet! looks like a fun read!

Oh wow. This is just awesome. Keith Richards wasn't Johnny Depp's inspiration, Wyman was!

yes, it looks like a fun hobby. if only metal detectors weren't sound dependent... then it would be an absolutely perfect excuse to bust out the portable rig.

Y-splitter. 2 inputs, one from the detector, other from your portable source. Y-adapter goes into your amp, then to your cans.

Guaranteed to have the highest fidelity detector beeping away while you rock out to the Stones in the background!

Hmmm... pictures of:

I see beep a red door beep and I beep want beep and so on...

that actually might be quite trippy. anyone for a K1000/Sonic-T/Bill Wyman Signature Metal Detector rig?

 

[GlendaleViper]

Think sharing - use those JVC binaural phones and rip the sounds. Then harness the awesome powers of teh interweb to give to friends.

another cool idea would be one channel for music, one for metal detector. i have a pair of earbuds that do this, but were made for listening to music in one ear and learning french in the other. the first person who makes a metal detector/portable rig and posts pics wins the prize. the prize? i dunno yet.

i think something more along these lines would better suit the k1k while using a metal detector as a source.
click for reccomended amp
it does have wheels... you would just need a long extension cord.

that auction looks like a scam, but it would be sweet if it werent. i could run my $125 hp1000 from a $1000 $10000amp...

yeah, 99.3% feedback isn't exactly stellar either.
