but what is the connector used on it? It's rectangular with two pins,
but doesn't seem to be US style.


Can anyone confirm the type (and hopefully a source of plugs as well!)


IIRC, called a Euro *Facilities* plug - not to be confused with an IEC
which is called a Euro plug. Maplin used to do them, but neither they nor
RS Components list them now.

The ones I've got are marked 'Bulgin 6/250 R770' but IIRC have to be
modified by cutting off a sort of fourth plastic pin.

Bulgin is - or was - a UK company, so you might try contacting them. Or
Yamaha.
