How to Play a sample sound using Java

Question

Hi,
I have an mp3 music files in database. When a user chooses a particular button, all the songs are fetched from the database.
I have two buttons namely, 'Buy' and 'Play Sample'. If I click the 'Play Sample' button, a sample of the song has to be played (not the full song). If the user likes the sample, he can buy the full song.
My question is how to achieve the 'Play Sample' using Java Swings and Sound. I have googled, but not find any solutions. Please provide me an example or link.
Thanks in advance.
