I'm sorry to disappoint you, but the standard color is deep red. If you want to order a MKVI I'd be happy to offer you a custom "fariy pink" version for your viewing pleasure, if you have that preference.

Gents,

All I can say is that my wife and I had the pleasure of plunking out
a few notes and chords on Mk VI S/N 28 two summers ago shortly before
Dave Kean moved from North Hollywood. My wife found it intriguing
but for me, all it did was temporarily satisfy the need and deepen
the addiction! Like I've told her, there's just the right amount of
room next to the piano in the living room....

Kudos to all those who have contributed in a positive fashion to the
invention, development and resurrection of the Mellotron!

Yep, it's red.

As seen here:

And (same picture) in the current Keyboard Mag.

Well, as near as my digital camera can capture reds anyway.

...kl...M400 #805 - now with the original neon red!
