On topic, I have a prototype ZIM, and (I guess) very early eternity(just one of the first that were used in the tourbox)

Also, menatone red snapper #073, and I DO have a white faced rat and an original vintage rat :D (actually, I like the sound of the rat 2 unmodified the best).

Here is what my ZIM looks like.

So, I have the tones of a zim in the size of half a ZIM. I just cant swap cards (but I can use the voice circuit on both channels!!) This is the way it should be IMO BTW.

Yes he is. Sad thing is as much as I LOVE that zim (the big red zim just takes up too much space) I can NOT get it to sound quite like my favorite sound in the eternity. It does get a hundred GREAT sounds though. Just not that one that I use the most which is

 

Eternity

 

Vol 12:00

Tone 2:00-3:00

Gain 9-10:00

 

I am gonna have to play with the socketed cap in my eternity and the IC's to see what other magic is in there. I have an odd chip in there right now that cam with it. I can t remember the name of it though.

Here is my early tourbox eternity. Redone in glow in the dark sparkle. I still have this one, and to my ears it sounds even better than the chinese graphic one I had (which are supposed to sound a tad above the rest).

Some protos are kept by me, some given away...

mostly, there are several prototypes.

 

As can be seen on this picture from the Frankfurt MusikMesse 1998,

I swapped the ORIGINAL TUBE-VIBE prototype for a Sovtek MIG50

amp with EH`s Mike Matthews...

My original tube-vibe is licensed exclusively to New Sensor Corporation,

and is not related at all to the product that recently appeared on the market, (8 years later) and bears the same name.

 

I have never seen that one in real life, nor heard it.

Dont know how "famous" but here is The Sweet #003...it was a working mock-up to demo the new model for potential buyers, constructed on perf-board, note the graphics are on a sticker and the in/out reversed:
