I've been working on finger picking drills to try and get my fingers in shape, but the drills are a bit boring. So, I thought it might be fun to challenge some people to see who has the fastest fingers.
The prize: Bragging rights.
The rules: Time yourself playing a complete spider drill without mistakes. Post time below. Person with the fastest time is the current leader.
*edit* like MGM said- this is a finger picking drill*
How to do a complete spider drill:
On the G string play the following frets:
0
1 2 3 4
2 3 4 5
3 4 5 6
4 5 6 7
5 6 7 8
6 7 8 9
7 8 9 10
8 9 10 11
9 10 11 12
11 10 9
11 10 9 8
10 9 8 7
9 8 7 6
8 7 6 5
7 6 5 4
6 5 4 3
5 4 3 2
4 3 2 1
Then repeat the pattern on the C, E and A strings.
Here is a video example:

My current fastest time is:
1:30.673
(timed using this stopwatch)
My goal is to get that time down to under a minute.
