Disklavier

I have contact with a party outside of my state that has a 1996 
upright disklavier.  He say it is a 48" model in polished black so I 
assumed it was a MX100.  He obtained the piano through an insurance 
settlement that resulted in him obtaining this piano to replace a 
grand piano lost in a fire.  

My question is the model info he has indicates that it is a MX PE2.  
Does anyone have familiarity with this model?  Does this model 
exist?  If I were able to obtain the serial number, is there anywhere 
on the web to ascertain the model for sure.

This party also has a MU-50 unit.  Is this a very good add on???  
Does anyone have an idea of what the MU-50 might sell for new?

Many thanks

Dave

MX PE2 doesn't ring a bell.  Watch out for Yamaha models that were not marketed
in your part of the world . . . Yamaha may not support them.  The Yamaha number
to call is (or at least used to be) 800-776-9262.

Good luck!

Im not positive, but it sounds like an MX100II with an add-on tone 
generator.  The PE means polished ebony finish.  The add-on tone generator 
means it will play ensemble sounds.  However, it also means that you can 
only use double-density disks, Eseq and MIDI format 0 files.  The extra 
height on the piano is due to the contol box being built into the lid.

I would go to Yamaha.com , click on pianos, then click on "Buying a used piano?".  Input the serial number and you will be able to see if it was built for the U.S. market.
