For me anyway it's hard to give up an old tool or instrument. I know how it reacts. I may buy new but I keep the old one because it's perfectly f'd up and has a definite purpose.
I think it has to be all one way or the other. It either has to be like yours or pristine. I hate it when it's in the middle.
