Can anyone comment about different grades of felt generally, Wurzen felt
specifically.  Does a higher grade mean more processing necessarily?  If so,
does it also mean less lanolin left in the felt, less elasticity for in the
fibers or anything else that might be considered a detriment?  It seems to
me that higher grade may not necessarily produce a more resilient hammer
(felt), or better tone.  Any comments?

Abel will give you Wurzen felt if you request it -- and sometimes 
even if you don't.
