There you go. Thanks, Didier. You must have liked that Thunderbird.
Since Fender offered Dupont paint colors pre-1960, 34346 could have been Roman Red, as Hank notes, or Fiesta Red, or some other standard Dupont color (maybe sone shade of pink).
I think the question might be: what is Hank’s basis for saying 34346 was Roman Red? Unless the precise name of the color appeared in an invoice or other literature accompanying the guitar (which doesn’t seem to have been Fender’s practice) or in the brochure they pored over (it doesn’t seem to have been the case), Hank’s statement might have been a conclusion formed some time after.
