I just ordered a back issue of the WW Quarterly on Tenon repair & replacement. I would think that some of the super glues or epoxy glues would be used here. What kind of cement did you have in mind?
Best,

Joe, seriously, when you apply epoxy under certain methods (like the one That JButler recently explained to us) ... you have to leave the horn overnite ... then you clean off the excess epoxy in the morning., togerther with other chores.
Looks like a good (bass) parts horn.

I have repaired many like this. For total security I glue seven 35 mm long, 1.2 mm diameter stainless steel rods into 1.4 mm diameter holes drilled longitudinally inside the wall of the tenon socket. With epoxy glue along the entire length I have never had one fail. I do broken tenons similarly but with 6 rods.

So is that bass Joe Vacc pointed out good for anything other than parts? Can that really be repaired??

Yes, it can be repaired, by glueing, with pinning for far more strength, or with grafting techniques.
