@@spaghettisauce445 why will she probably quit? I didn't get your point. She cleary enjoy playing bass, she will no quit... and this is a knowledge that she will never forget. It's possible for her to change her main instrument. but quit music? No.

When she laughs at the end of those riffs, it reminds me of the pure joy that comes with really nailing a riff or line. The fact that she’s able to experience that feeling at such a young age will do wonders for her growth. Whether she sticks with bass or not, if she keeps having fun while learning, she will go so far!

It's not about how hard you try, it's about how long you try. Over the 40 years you played bass, how much of that time as a percentage did you spend practicing? If you haven't mastered it, you either have A) bad technique habits, that are fixable with strict patience. Or 2) You just simply never practiced enough for your brain and muscle memory to be primed with each other to play the instrument. If you keep practicing every single day, and I mean every single day, there will be improvement. Good luck my friend

Love the joy on her face when she completes each jam 😊

What an amazing young musician. Her hands are incredibly strong and could only get that way through hours of practice every day. Cheers to her and supportive father. What a great way to bond with your child.

I am in shock each time I watch this kid. Her spirit is amazing and I love that her dad is teaching her respect for others. She has to know the other bassist name, album, and year. She will have an incredible music lexicon and history that will facilitate amazing growth. I am amazed by her skill but shocked those little hands can do that. Physically, it baffles me because as a guitarist, I know the reaches are hard for me as an adult, and a bass has even bigger frets. I am sitting here with large hands complaining, and this 9 year old has seemingly no limitations. She is playing it all with those tiny hands. Incredible!

*@Lee Clements* Im no endocrinologist or biologist, not by a long shot. Just another someone who's read about how the difference in typing speed between men & women is _seratonin._ For men the average is 50-60 words per minute, whereas with women it is 70-90 wpm. I suspect that this "seratonin advantage" contributes significantly to Ellen's mind-blowing rapidity with those little fingers.... However, when I think for just a moment about the brute execution of veteran bassists Bernard Edwards, Nathan Watts & Louis Johnson (for example), it reminds me that there are people on both sides of the gender line who happen to be gifted with it. Incidentally, for this video Ellen matches the lightning speed of the masters, with Bernard's _Good Times_ bassline, & Nathan's _Sir Duke_ bassline In my 22 years of electric bass it has mystified me how that six string guitar has always required more of my stamina, & seems to also demand more energy for me to consistently hold those tiny strings against the frets, without mistakes. Its counter-intuitive that the thicker strings of a bass with their increased tension would take less energy from me, & enable me to play for longer sets before tiring. Rapidity has always been my neverending quest; a challenge only attained by continuous practice ever week, & quickly diminished by muscle atrophy if I put the instrument down for just a few days Best of Success to Ellen & her Dad. This world needs more fathers like him who are dedicated to their children's future, & willing to help them actualize their full potential, no matter what. God bless them both! 🎼🎶🎸❤❤

She is charismatic and intelligent. Musical talent was born with her. Wonderful girl. Impressive. 12:00

You’re amazing, Kiddo!! Keep it up! Can’t wait to see you in stage one day! You’re such a little rocker!! I’m learning bass now at 44 years old and am loving it!

Just look at the joy in her face! The look you get when you feel what you play, and boy can she play! I had to subscribe. Amazing work , dad and daughter! My hat is off to you both!

How much love and joy brings this liiil girl???😍😍😍 Watching her rock the place and cheer, as she gets a correct release year or flawlessly play a more challenging line, is priceless! 🥳🥳🥳 Keep on dreaming baby 🤗 and much, much, much esteem and respect for your dad! You're both precious to the world!!!💜💜💜
