Hi

Here’s a quick video tutorial on how to play Time Is Tight – the original was played by Duck Dunn and of course the artist was Booker T and The MGs.

This tune is a good discipline for beginners – because the bass line is doubled by the guitar and/or the organ you have to deliver it consistently throughout the tune.  So learn the line, and then play along with the original and try and cop some of Duck’s energy and groove.

MarloweDK: Spike| Well, thank you for the thumb(s) up:-)

MarloweDK: Hmm, the link has gone missing, let me locate it and get back to you

Murdy: Hey Marlowe, I bought the L253 in order toget the backing track. However, there is no backing track without the bass. Is there a way to get this?

hank: Thanks Marlowe! I guess I better start saving up. I can't wait to get one. I'm positive if I get one then my playing automatically gets funkier right? :)

MarloweDK: Hank: my sig bass will be presented at the Frankfurt musik messe in march. I dont know of the price but i guess it will be priced in the same range as Sandbergs California models. There is a couple of american retailers, check Sandbergs site.

soporific: Hi guys!

Harry Popper: hi, GospelBassMan

GospelBassMan: Hello community!!

hank: Will your bass be mass produced? Do you think it will be affordable (relatively speaking) Will it be offered online for us Americans that wanna buy it?

chooty: Thank you very much.
