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

fotp: Hey, what do you think about Rodenberg pedals ? Just ordered the GAS 728B on thomann, hope it will be worth it !

fotp: Hi, who is your sandberg reseller ? thx

funkyjonx: Does anyone have pro tips or pointers for smooth slides? I find that I hear the individual frets/note much more than I would like.

mikeepatrick: Just really, really wanted to thank you, dude. Groove on, brother...

Dug: would someone be so kind and do a tutorial on "i'll be there" by Marcus Miller? just thought i'd ask!!! thx Marlowe, i luv it here!!!

MarloweDK: Thank you Patricio, your suggestions have been noted, and yes im looking into the ipad too:-)

Patricio: Hi MDK, Wow waht a great DVD... just spent a few hours learning the first few lessons... great quality and well taught... I'm very pleased with my purchase. If any improvment could be made I would only say could there be a 'repeat' funcion so that you can get a lick to play continually? or what aboutt a not showingthe BPM so that we can use the correct tempo using the drum patterns... overall a wonderful job... I look forward to more downloads in the future.... especially for IPad

MarloweDK: Great to hear, enjoy it:-)

Soulburn: Finally I donwloaded the DVD, its simply amazing. I wait for more material like this. Thanks you very much! Cheers from Argentina

MarloweDK: Thank you, and yes, i will make something else for the next dvd
