I banged my bass against a concerete post yesterday (ouch), tired afer a long gig, and knocked a small chip off the edge, about 1.5cms. Is there any reason not to just glue the piece back on? with normal woodglue or something else?

Its a solid edge. Is the reason for using hide glue so that it can be opened up again? as this chip doesn't reach the seam, I can't imagine any reason for wanting to undo my repair. Would there be any other problems with wood glue? I think hide glue would be difficult and expensive to get hold of, and (hopefully!) I won't be needing to do this sort of thing very often.
