Willy,

I just fixed such a broken bass clarinet (a Vito). I drilled six holes in the broken tenon piece and matching holes in the tenon from whence it came; inserted six tightly-fitting steel pins to bridge the break, and then bonded it all together with high-strength epoxy (after a thorough surface prep with acetone). It seemed to make a strong joint and at last report was holding together. In this case the break was 'clean' (no missing pieces or chunks, the parts fit together perfectly) so it was relatively easy.
