What will have an effect is vibes being transmitted from the mylar TO the frame, not getting absorbed and BOUNCING back. (reflected, might be the 'better' term) This will muddy things up, for sure.
I personally champion high rigidity BY DESIGN coupled with low mass. Use of natural composites, like WOOD, for example, help spread the spectrum of vibes out and diminish nodes.

I would personally LOVE to experiment with 3/4" PLYBOO, which is Bamboo Plywood. I have a bunch of samples, all about 4"x4"x3/4" and the 'neopolitan' weighs about 25% MORE than any of the other samples which all hover around 100grams. =<4oz.
That stuff has a (naturally) high silicon content and tends to EAT even the hardest tooling. Keep your stuff sharp for best and safest results.
Too much is never enough
