Excerpt from article on LoudWire:
"How much is a prize item like one of Les Claypool’s basses worth to you? Now add in the fact that he’s auctioning it off for his ailing two-year-old nephew who is suffering from a rare form of infant leukemia. After putting the bass on the block, the Primus leader found out just how much it could get, as the auction just ended with the winning bid going for $50,599.99.
Claypool recently put the final prototype for his Pachyderm four-string bass, and it is the design by which all future Pachyderm basses will be modeled after. The Primus leader had been playing the bass live over the past year, and added that it was a 'fabulous feeling and sounding instrument.'"
