Should I get a maple or a walnut metronome for fingerpicking?

Glad the picks I get at Elderly are a few dollars, tops.
That is incredible . . . I love that story.

New metronomes probably have an abundance of plastic internally, gears, etc - whether or not the outside is wood or plastic. Older metronomes don't. Something to think about.

Fishermike, do you know if your Seth Thomas has metal or plastic intestines? And what year it was made?
