Saw and met Donny at The Basement East where this episode was filmed. Truly one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. Seeing Donny’s bass playing in-person cannot be overhyped. Him and his band are easily one of the musically tightest I’ve ever witnessed. I’m usually a metal guy but his show was so much fun and a nice change of scenery for me.
Donny is a treasure and a true blue Australian hero. At first, I thought he was a novelty act, but the music overshadows the persona and he's such a chill guy in person!
Mr Experience is such a solid piece of work, he did a whole album rundown on TH-cam that is absolutely hysterical and also absolutely jams. Do yourself a favor and look up his channel.
The Don! Thanks for doing such a great rig rundown for him, PG. And Donny, you want the Providence Anadime Bass Chorus - that's the chorus you need. Got a high pass filter for your low end needs.
I love Donny. When I first saw him I had no idea he was a bassist as he did the gig only with a synth. Seen him many times since both with his band and in the Dreamlanders. It’s always a good time with Donny.
Donny, if you're reading this; try out an Ibanez BC10. Very nice bass chorus without loss of low-end. The filter/delay time is also much wider than your typical chorus pedals. Plus it's stereo if you want to get freaky. Cheers!
A nice feature and glad he’s getting coverage. A bit breezy but it is after all a rig rundown. I’d like to hear more of his story, sometime, hear where he takes conversation and his narrative.
MXR M 234 Analog Chorus is great for bass. It has LOWcut so you are able to let your bottom end through! Also has Hicut. Great video, thx Donny! #donnybenet
Haven't had a chance to check that one out. For a few years, I've been stuck on the Seymour Duncan Catalina chorus...sounds so good, but never hear anyone talk about it.

Keep the bass rundowns coming!!
If you are watching this video and haven't listened to his work please do yourself a favor and go listen to his album "Mr. Experience".
I was late to the Donny B party, but I'll never leave! I hope everyone enjoys this episode and embrace your inner DBE!

Pleasantly surprised to see Donny, more bass please!
Not a rundown I saw coming, but hell yeah! Donny is a blast.

Saw Donny live in May. He does not disappoint!
Finally a rig rundown for Mr Experience himself!
So delighted that Donny is getting the attention he deserves!
Keep Rockin dude!
Love Donny B, amazing bass playing, fantastic songs, top bloke. Thanks for this PG 👍🏻🙏🏻😎
Glad you enjoyed it
Still basking in the after glow of seeing Donny in Adelaide, and now what a treat to see this.
I was there too. I still am. I can’t unstick my feet from the Lion Arts Centre floor
not only is donny a great multi-instrumentalist... he's funny and doesnt take himself seriously
Never heard of this dude but I’m not gonna deny he sounds like a hell of a bassist, his playing at the beginning sounded really cool
I met Donny after his San Antonio show last year! Awesome guy, awesome music!
Chatting about bass gear with Donny = the dream.
This dude is so fckn cool.🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
Donny was spectacular on Saturday night in Melbourne! Everyone was grateful for their Melted faces! \m/
SUCH a great show at the Croxton! I just closed my eyes & blissed out. 🥰
Donny is freakin' awesome! Thanks for the rig rundown with him!
Our pleasure!
Donny's steady rise gladdens me greatly!
Donny is great! I loved learning about his approach to writing music, touring and, obviously, the gear. Thanks for inviting him!
Been a huge fan of Donny’s work for a few years now; many thanks for this upload!!!!!
The Don! Thanks for doing such a great rig rundown for him, PG.
And Donny, you want the Providence Anadime Bass Chorus - that's the chorus you need. Got a high pass filter for your low end needs.
Donny is way more 80's than 70's.
Mr. Experience! The man. Saw him live once in Lisbon. Awesome show. 👌
The man… Donny is unreal
Saw him in Boston this spring. If he’s in your town-go! Puts on a great show, crowd was cool and ready to dance. He rules.
He's so mysterious and experienced 😂
I like him even more now, after watching this! Prefers 2x12" cabinets and doesn't like compression, like myself! 😁
Donnys' enthusiasm is quite infectious. Love it!
Love this !!! Donny understands the importance of being sonically connected. He is a true custodian of the instrument.
This guy is such an Inspiration and proves anyone who has a dream can make it
Donny Benet is the man, and it is awesome to see him featured here
Such a legend! Konnichiwa and video is such a legendary classic. Love your work bruv.
I saw him in Denver a few weeks back. Donny kicks ass.
I love Donny. When I first saw him I had no idea he was a bassist as he did the gig only with a synth. Seen him many times since both with his band and in the Dreamlanders. It’s always a good time with Donny.
Saw Donny in May in Toronto and he put on a great show, the whole band was awesome. Absolutely godly lines that don't quit.
The Don is such a nice guy. I can't wait to see him live again
Konichiwa.
Donny, if you're reading this; try out an Ibanez BC10. Very nice bass chorus without loss of low-end. The filter/delay time is also much wider than your typical chorus pedals. Plus it's stereo if you want to get freaky. Cheers!
I would love to hang out with Donny, he seems like such a cool guy.
One of the nicest genuine bass players out there like Billy Sheehan
I saw Donny B live about a month ago with that new F Bass, he totally kicked ass! What a character.
Same in denver
Yessss, the Don is goooddd. Do yourself a favour and see him live, so much fun. Amazing music.
So cool to see him on this channel.
A nice feature and glad he’s getting coverage. A bit breezy but it is after all a rig rundown. I’d like to hear more of his story, sometime, hear where he takes conversation and his narrative.
He slappa da bass! After I watched this, I became pregnant. Donny is the man
Not usually a fan of the PJ pickups but his sounds lovely
not that Donny wil read it but if you do maybe check the Horrothia Type One Analogue Ensemble Chorus
just for the record, when he's talking about his prophet 6 he means the 5 😂, real nice collection at Donny studios
Peak Rig Rundown
The Don never disappoints, he's like if Rocco Prestia and Louis Cole adopted a randomly nerdy Aussie kid
Smooth - Donny B train steamin' through Rundown country - bless 'im!
The world would be a better place if everyone was a whole lot more like Donny Benet.
Great interview and rundown - you're right about his positivity!
Yeah, he allways make me so happy. What a hero!
Mr Experience himself
Love me some Donny! We were sad he didn't play Girl Of My Dreams, but the show was amazing nonetheless!
MXR M 234 Analog Chorus is great for bass. It has LOWcut so you are able to let your bottom end through! Also has Hicut.
Great video, thx Donny! #donnybenet
Boss Line Selector LS-2. Good for mixing clean and effect sounds together.
Great dude!
By the way, does anyone know what song he’s playing at 23:40?
The song is called Forbidden Love off his newest album
Thanks so much
Saw him live last month, love The Don!
Donny if you’re reading: Providence Anadime Bass Chorus
Awesome. So awesome. This is what music should be about! Unpretentious fun and musicianship!
Donny is the coolest!
Oh my God! He's made it. He's big-time
It seems he replaced the P pickup in his main bass with a J and installed a pickguard to cover it.
Donny "Down Under" Benet
holy fuck, been waiting for this.
omg, yes.
Came for the awesome skullet, stayed for the sweet bass gear.
Never heard of Donny, will be checking him out
You are THE man Donny!
Huge Donny fan! Would recommend the EHX Bass Clone!
What that bass do, Donny
WE GOT THE SAME FAVORITE SONG. YESSSSSS. Girl of my Dreams is the GOAT
Donny es el mas mejor!!!
Go watch the Santorini vid asap if you don’t know Donny… his vibe and confidence are perfect
Donny's best! The video is a hilarious masterpiece but the song is so damn good!
Id love to see RR's on the STAFF on Premier Guitar!
His taste in music make me like him more.
Mr. Experience himself!
HaHA shoutout to Scott's Bass Guy!!
What a legend!!!
Donny is a great guy!
awesome
Put the chorus through an effects loop by itself…or run it parallel through an a/b switch…
Donnie the Providence Bass Chorus! Its perfect. HPF keeps the bass in tact
MXR Analog Chorus has a filter! He should try that out.
Haven't had a chance to check that one out. For a few years, I've been stuck on the Seymour Duncan Catalina chorus...sounds so good, but never hear anyone talk about it.
Love Donnie! Second Dinner!
love this man so much l wanna to be his mustache!
What a legend!
Love the Don!!
rad
Love the Don.
The skullet lord himself!
So Chris is expecting, Doctor says he's 8 weeks now.
the mighty DON!
Appreciate the effort, but The Don requires no introduction!
