This is what I like most in life. There is nothing on this earth that fills me with as much joy than witnessing someone so young doing something as cool as this. Music is one of life's fundamentals. Young fella, I've been in bands all my life & you'll never even know my name but I'm going to know yours & so are 6 billion other people worldwide, so when the academics start throwing the equations at you, you just tell 'em - nah, I want that one on again...
haha i started playing when i was that age too! its nice to see young bass players..keep encouraging him and he'll go far...Good job lil marcus miller
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
fucking little neegroo you are the best little mother fucker you have too much fucking feeling keep practicing you fucking brat son of a bitch man i can believe he's too fucking young and have that feeling
drwinkle101, I dont know what experience you have with kids/music, but you are completely off base (xcuse the pun). From my experience, motivation from the kid, is the most important thing. A drive to play. Scales my ass. You can drill scales into a kid till he is blue in the face and all you will achieve is, that you turn him away from music. Kid has to want to play, and realize, that he has to invest time and effort to be better.
Everybody is right i started playin when i was thirteen years young and i was messin around and it took me one year to get serious but i wish i had someone to cheer me around so i could be as good as Marcus Miller one

This is sad mess. He looks and sounds like his parents are praising and rewarding him no matter what he does. If he is to learn properly he needs discipline, and to play much more simply to start with. "I want THAT one on again!" No, you must learn your scales first.
this is a brilliant player in the making...to the parents, please continue to support this young mind in the pursuit of music, he clearly has a natural talent. you must be very proud.
this is incredible! you rock! seriously. you carry on with that, by 25 you'll be the most indestructably amazing bass player ever. probably before then. lol x
He has that something special. It is a natural inborn feeling for music, especially "by ear". When I was young, I had this too, I could play any instrument that I picked up. I think that if you "hone" David just right, you'll all be basking in the riches. Don't let him get sidetracked!
i am so incredibly envious of you skills. tell your parents that if they dont send you to berklee or B.I.T. god will smite them for letting such incredible talent go to waste. dude, seriously. your skills are compareable to wooten or claypool. looking foreward to hearing you everywhere within 15 years.
Do you remember the episode of South Park when Cartman starts a Christian Rock band (Faith plus 1)...and Token discovers he can play bass. 'God damnit Token, you're black, you can play bass!!' says Cartman.
Greatest respect to you little guy, you are full of music! Keep it coming with feeling.
aww cute kid. it's great if he likes bass already. IF he does decide to keep it up, imagine how good he'll be at 15. he'll have played for 12 years ffs! :D
omg i'm 18 and started 3 years ago and what i'd give to have been interested back then. by now i could be really pro standard :p
good luck and hope you keep enjoying bass, it's a great instrument
This is a freakin 3-year-old doing this? Daymn! As random as his playing might be, the kid has a VERY good idea of how to play the bass. Soon enough he's gonna kill someone with some serious groove. Wow! Lil' kitty has big paws already!
He isn't just randomly playing crap.. he's following a scale by the looks of it.. and got a lil groove going on, at this age all i can say is don't let a bass out this boys sight and let him grow up on the instrument. Just like victor did, and show him everything you know. =)
its 10pm and i had the worse day i had in a long time. then for some reason ran across this video and... i smiled for the first time. so im gonna watch it again. i love this kid already. he's a star
He's slapping, pulling off and holding down the strings that great!! He knows the basic concept. Most kids that age don't understand that. He's way ahead!
HEY MAN!!!! THIS KID REALLY GROOVE UP THIS STUFF!!! HE GOT RITHM IN HIS VEINS!!! IM REALLY STUNNED!!! FOR GODS SAKE, KEEP HIM STUDIYNG!!!
hug from brasil's bros!
ps: i have to remember that master victor "victa" wooten started at this age of 3, and at 10 he was a teacher, and was the last revolution on bass whith his slap techs. and this guy is going there too!!! hiauhauahuah....

To do what he is doing is very good for a three year old.
He has yet to grasp the harmony concepts, but he clearly has an ear and the foundation for technique.
He keeps playing he will be a monster.
Besides he is having fun, no one has to make him play!
Excellent!

drwinkle101, I dont know what experience you have with kids/music, but you are completely off base (xcuse the pun). From my experience, motivation from the kid, is the most important thing. A drive to play. Scales my ass. You can drill scales into a kid till he is blue in the face and all you will achieve is, that you turn him away from music. Kid has to want to play, and realize, that he has to invest time and effort to be better.
