The legendary bassist is featured circa 1983

KnuckleBonz, Inc. and The Cliff Burton Estate have launched a Cliff Burton KnuckleBonz Limited Edition Collectible Statue with a portion of all proceeds going to the Cliff Burton Music Scholarship Fund for Rising Youth Musicians. Pre-sales are now available at knucklebonz.com with only 3,000 available worldwide. The ship date is estimated for early 2025.

“The Burton Family is proud to have Cliff featured a second time in the KnuckleBonz Rock Iconz Series,” the Burton Family says in a statement. “Continuing the mission of Cliff’s father, the late Ray Burton, the Cliff Burton family fosters the next generation of musical talent by awarding scholarships to rising youth musicians. We handpick individuals from around the world with the same enthusiasm for music and dedication to their craft as the late bassist Cliff Burton.”

The Cliff Burton Rock Iconz Statue is hand-crafted by KnuckleBonz artists using a fine arts process where each figure is hand-cast, painted and numbered. Each statue comes with a certificate of authenticity on the base.

This limited edition collectible is created in 1/9 scale making statues approximately 8.5 to 9 inches tall. All work created by KnuckleBonz is officially licensed. KnuckleBonz, the creator of the Rock Iconz music collectible series, has been developing iconic, high-quality statues of rock music legends since 2003.

“This statue captures Cliff earlier in his career when he relied on this ‘Red Rick’ bass to drop the hammer on stage each night,” says Tony Simerman, CEO/Creative Director of KnuckleBonz, Inc.

“We are honored to continue working with the Burton Family; it’s quite remarkable work they do to support rising youth talent with the Cliff Burton Scholarship Fund,” adds Simerman.

The Cliff Burton Rock Iconz Statue is $169 and is currently in production. The statue is anticipated to ship in early 2025. KnuckleBonz will announce a more precise shipping time frame later this year.
