Do you use your “best” bass on gigs?

[Stub Mandrel]

Performer diddled with for half an hour, then put into it's case for the first time in a long time (I had to repair the handle, and it's few outings in the last ten years have been in a jazz bass case).

Bass players: I'd never take my favourite bass out to a gig, it might get a tiny scratch on it and that would be really upsetting.

Also bass players: just taking this one out the back to go at it with a rusty bike chain and an angle grinder for a lovely authentic-looking relic finish.
