That bass waited nearly 40 years to be played by Mr. Experience. It was worth the wait.

Hahahahaaa

Don and Ken. A match made in heaven!

That Smith sounds amazing. It's clearly in the right hands.

Donny, you don't just create music, you also create a little bubble-universe all your own into which you invite us to step so that we can really experience and get a sense of what you're trying to achieve through this wonderful artistic project of your. Mr Experience is quite a clever title. Much respect to you, kind Sir. You are an amazing Artist.

Best part of 2023 was seeing Donny in concert.

I saw him in concert back in San Diego last year; i swear to god the raw sexual energy he emits is too powerful for this universe

How has it taken me this long to discover you Donny? You're the saviour of music in these troubled times. Keep doing what you're doing. Amazing.

If Donny did a gig on the moon, i'd hitch a ride on a starship and meet him on the Sea of Tranquility.

I rarely see musicians reveal their secrets this way. Donny is just so real and cool, he's happy to show you all the riffs. Haha

I am so, and I cannot stress this enough, HARD right now

The bloke is a national treasure and she be protected all costs

JUST SAW YOU IN LA AND MAN WHAT A SHOW. You had absolutely the most CRUSHING and smooth, tone ive ever heard live from a bassist. Mr Experience himself is a life changing show for anyone. donny is the 🐐

God I love this mans charisma !

On the seventh day God rested and relaxed by putting on Mr. Experience. ...and the Lord said it was good

Worst part of 2023 was missing donny in concert.

He killed it in L.A.

This man is one of my heros!

Donny, you really ARE the boss!

That switch, sounds like clav mode 🤩

Good lord Donny what a bass you've got there. Sounds magnificent!

This man changed my world. I love his music! He is so talented and a cool 😎 guy.

The bass in that fade out section of Love Online is so damn grooving!

Gorgeous Kent Smith! The Konichiwa video is the best video ever loaded on KZread.

love the balance of great, intelligent composition and simplicity. nothing unnecessary and everything in it is beautiful alone

You know it’s going to be a good day when The Don uploads to KZread.

"I have plenty of basses, but THIS one has a bass cut switch!"

Yes, brother Don.

Bountiful fruit delivered fresh by The Don 🍓🍎🍍🍒

The rhythm is the bass and the bass is the treble 👍⭐️

to this day, i still don't know what that means..

Bloody fuckin' legend, hope to see him live some day! (I'm American btw, but I love Aussies and 🇦🇺)

The most "Everything falls into place" vibe video on the net. Amazing as always

Donny Benet & jamiroquai -nice team !!!!!

Drove two hours to see your March show in Boston with my pal Rob. It was amazing! Nothing beats a vintage Smith.

So smooth. So funky. The love has never been this online

This is amazing. I dont even know how to play bass yet here I am at 43 thinking I should take it up. Thank you for all you do Donny and cant wait to see you on the AU tour in June!

Sensei Benét! You are a true Bass-master. I bow in respect!

Keep them coming Donny! You're the man! My cousin came from Germany just to attend your Montreal concert on my behalf because I couldn't make it. Thank you for the autograph!!

I saw you in LA earlier this year, brought some friends who became instant fans. Just found out that youre going to be in Santa Ana next week, I didnt realize you were even still in the country, but I just scooped up some tickets and I am so fuckin stoked, what a treat

Its the placement of that open A in that lick that's so boss

Don't be fooled by this guy he'd make a broom sound good.

Outro of Love Online combined with little soloing was incredibly groovy (ideal sound for night pursuit)!! Ken Smith sounds superb! I'm waiting for next Europe tour! Love you Donny!

As always, LEGIT. Please consider playing in Eugene Oregon again. Portland was a good set but a long drive and the city was a bit rough around the edges.

I am a bassist and I cannot FUNK like that!... awesome!

Please give me lessons!

tonsillitis serendipity, glad reality doesn't disappoint teenage nerding out

Aw no, I'm one of the guilty ones - I played Konichiwa as part of a bass demo video, and I got one of notes wrong! Bummer 😞, should've listened more closely. Thanks Donny for showing us the right way to play it! This is seriously the best tone I've ever heard from a Ken Smith. Such a terrific sound 👌

Sound on this video was pumpin. And that opening was a banger. So glad you scored a legacy type instrument and look forward to further content🎉

These types of vids are a lot of fun, even if I'm not a true bassist just a guy with a couple basses that occasionally meanders around some notes lol. Thanks Donny!!

Today was the first sunny day after a long time in my country.I put on "forgotten spring" to boost my mood into the higher dimensions, then I discovered this video and what a day it was. Thank you good sir, I love everything that you are cooking

Just recently stumbled upon your catalog and I can't get enough hope to catch you live one day!

Definitely some slippery licks there in the last few mins. 💯

I think I saw Donny and his band at the Newtown Festival. Im thinking 10 or so years ago maybe more can’t remember. Anyways It was fantastic . My friend Chris plays one of those basses they are bad ass . Anyways enjoy whatever it is you do . Peace ☮️.

Long live the funk!

Donny I am a bass player and a huge fan of your work. Keep up these awesome videos

Simply cool music.. Hey, let´s make a song about peace in these strage times!

justa wanna dat dere konichiwas bass! 🥰🥰🥰 u good n styles dope 😘😘😘

i saw him in concert back in October at San Diego. Along with the opener band, it was one TRULY amazing show!

much love. thank you for the inspiration

Thank you for the insights into your creative process and the bass tutorials Donny! A real class act.

WOW that plays so smooth! need more Donny in our lives!

Donny, that KS is beautiful. A worthy match for your virtuosity.

These videos remind me of 80's VHS bass instructional videos. Tasty!

That bass sounds so good. My '97 original Pedulla Thunderbolt is one of my best sounding basses. Something about some of the older basses....they just have that sound and are so easy to play.

Donny you adorable music nerd, keep on funking!

It’s funny how I first encountered you in one of those “ bad video” compilations . Only to find out you are a hugely talented master musician and session -quality bassist .

Thank you! 😊

Love your work. The video for both songs were awesome.

Just some quality sounds from Mr. Donny Benét! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🤌🏽✌🏾

Mr Donn,you are the Master

New Donny video!!! I can only watch the old ones so many times.

You absolute gem. Thank you!

Saw Donny in MTL last month. Excellent show. I had a blast. Cheers!

The Don! Always stellar!

My 2 fave songs! I went to heaven! 😍

LOVE LOVE LOVE IT ALL

Thank you for your great music. Love the attitude !

This was intense! Great sound!

This was a great vid. An insight into Donny's bass talent was wonderful. Your music is fresh, catchy and timeless.Huge thanks for this one.

What a damn good year!

Sick. Groove. You blow me away man. Thanks

Came home after going to my regular pub and having a bit of a run in with judgmental feelings about things and now having lasagna with bread to dip the extra sauce and Donny makes it all güd.

Wow!!! Love your vibes! Beautiful grooving and great taste and choices!

I had no idea who you were before this week, but I stumbled upon you and I'm just really into what you're doing. Today I found you on Spotify and I can't wait to delve into your album or albums or catalog whatever you got, I'm going to watch it. Thank you for sharing your music and talent. I'm a bass player and while I have found some good stuff over the years, it's really hard to find bass player mentors or people to look up to who are original and have a style of their own and just leaders in their field. I think I found that in you. I know there's a lot of great bass players out there. They're just hard to find. So when I find someone like you I really value it and appreciate it. Cheers

Brighten my day.

Donny you are a riot ! Keep Doing you amigo .

What an awesomely sweet tone!

13:56 What a transition! Thank you M. Benét!

I was feeling really anxious this morning, but this awesome video has just totally put me in a much better headspace! Thank you ❤

Donny! Great to see you again man!!

Incredible sounding bass ❤

Ciao Mr Benét! I hope to see you at Eurovision Song Contest sooner or later!!! Well made songs, great bassist and person too! Greetings from Italy

thanks Donny!!

Maestro🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌😍 your song brings joy to every bass player

thank you youtube for suggesting this channel.

Fantastic!

Sounding great Donny. Lovin the vibe and tone on that new bass

The best of the best. The cream of the crop.

The man! The myth! THE EXPERIENCE

Congrats on the new Axe, sounds killer. 🔥

La Piano, hands down my album of the year, keen for a follow up! Please come to Hawkes Bay!

Love Online is a bass master class.

Beautiful Ken Smith Bass. Your so lucky to own it.

Donny looks like the love child of Nick Cave and late-stage Elvis, but sounds like an absolute dream! So glad to know you are back in the studio, making silky smooth sounds for my tender lovin' ears... much love and light to you Mr. Experience! 😄💯🤘
