Somewhere I believe I still have a 45 of "Kookie Lend Me Your Comb". The Flip side was a "hip" Christmas song , something like "Have a COOL Yule". My older sister was one of those who thought Kookie was the ginchiest :-[.

I don't know, Kookie was more a sanitized-for-TV hipster than a rebel. My dad loved the show and the characters like Kookie and Roscoe.

So did mine!  Even the music was cool on 77 Sunset Strip.

Oh my, my late mother loved that series!  :) It epitomized America to her back then.

On the original subject - to quote Rickenbacker CEO John Hall on the RRF:

"You'll find that these have been withdrawn from the market."

I'm not surprised.

The cresting wave upper body design and the headstock shape probably doomed it.
