Hey, guys ­ I¹ve got five small pads and one kick from the x00 range (single
zone, 1/4 outs) that, ahem, suffer from decreased sensitivity :-) In other
words, they¹ve had the heck beaten out of Œem, and barely work. I understand
that they¹re fairly simple devices inside, and was wondering if any of you
veterans can offer suggestions as to how to bring Œem back to life. On a
related note, is there anything that can be done to clean up the playing
surfaces and shells? Thanks in advance for any help!

Peace and love,

Ed
