Finger Picking Help

Sign in to disble this ad
I've been playing for about 4 years now, and I've pretty much always used a Pick except on a few occasions when recording. But now I want to develop my finger picking, try to make it faster and more accruate from string to string. Does anybody know of any good exersises I can do with my picking had to help me out?

im in the same dilema, only after 1 1/2 years. i just started with my fingers like a month ago, and can play decent, but slow. and not near the volume of a pick. i can slap pretty good, though.
