Please excuse my naivete. This is the first time I have ventured outside of my MIJ domain. I recently purchased a Ludwig Speed King foot pedal with a wooden mallet. Following directions obtained here, I greased and polished this beauty until it glimmered. It was fast but, to be honest, I didn't like the "wooden" sound on the bass. I've seen other mallets which were not made of wood. Is the wooden type older? Which do you gentlemen prefer? Perhaps I have not adjusted the tension properly. Thank you in advance.
