This machine on ebay claims that
(For fun, I will add that this CMI was sold to me as having belonged to ZZ Top. There are no markings to confirm that and I have no idea if it is true, but it's fun to believe it.)

This machine was sold to the current owner in 2007 from a gent named Peter in the UK.
I personally owned the machine ZZTop used from Ardent in Nashville where they recorded there hits. I sold it Erik from New York. I kept all the good ZZTop sounds, most are on streaming tape. Funny, I purchased a external streamer and it didn't work so I still have all of these ZZ tapes and have not heard them.
Does anyone have any internal or maybe external streamers for a Series III to sale?
