Hey everyone

Here’s a quick lesson on how to play the bass line to Use Somebody by Kings of Leon.  This is a great turn for beginners because the majority of the bass line is in a steady 8th note rhythm with mainly the root note as the note being used for each chord.

Here it is:

There is much going on rhythmically in that 2nd verse than what you are teaching here. Its not all eights at all.

You’ve missed the slide at the end of the intro, from F (I play it from the 8th fret of A), which also appears at the end of the song

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.
