Donny Benét Dials In a ’59 P-Bass & a Vintage Ken Smith for “Midnight Appointment”
Donny Benét is back in the studio, and the groove is doing all the seducing.
On this playthrough from his instrumental album, Donny Benét locks in with a vintage 1959 Fender Precision Bass and takes it slow. As if a Vintage P wasnt enough, Donny then breaks out a vintage Ken Smith for the melody. The line slides in, sits low, and stays right on you. That is why he is the sexiest bassist alive. It is all in how he handles the line. A little tension, a little release, over and over.
Donny mentions this is a nod to Paul Jackson so you know its gonna be good.
