Not in my case #510 is and has been black since 1974.
Sticking to my theory about the women.

I think the white of the mellotrons causes grey hair - the colours are very close.
Let's ask David Cross to apply the grecian formula?

I have recently noticed that my hair has started to thin and turn a bit gray. I have noticed other Mellotron owners with what appears to be the same affliction. So I'm beginning to think that if you have a Mellotron long enough, this is likely to happen. Back in 2002 when I first acquired a Mellotron in the modern age, I had more hair and no gray. When I was young I had one, but only for a short time so it didn't have a chance to cause any changes. Over the last several years I have been pretty much surrounded by them and my hair seems to be thinning and turning gray. There has to be a correlation.
