Touching story and gesture by Les Claypool to help his two-year-old nephew in his battle from infant leukemia. Has his Pachyderm prototype bass up for auction in eBay... saw this yesterday and it was $28,000.... today its over $38,000.... some great people with deep pockets are stepping forward the bidding. Good to see Les has that kind of "pulling power".....

Not a big fan of his music but a huge fan of the man & this makes him a legend. All the best for Les' sale, hope it gets over $50k.

Final bid/selling price was $50,599.99... great to see people who have a fat wallet buying/contributing to a good cause...
