Something tells me that just soldering the next back on will fix this problem.

Hmmm, makes me wonder if it twisted off - bad solder joint and a too-tight neck cork?

Better than trying to find a replacement neck!

Happens a lot on these Asian horns. No big deal

I am guessing that the necks falling off are from the poor quality of brass?

Is the Kohlert Asian? Maybe, I just didn't know that. I'd guess the build-quality is more of an issue than the quality of the brass. DAVE

This happened to a friend of mine in college. Except his horn was a Selmer Series II alto. He said it happened when he put his horn together after riding in a cold trunk in the winter. It happens. A repairman soldered it back together. Wasn't as pretty, but worked all the same.

This happened to me some time ago. I use an adhesive product called "JB Weld". This made a strong (claimed tensile strength of almost 4,000 PSI), permanent repair and if done carefully will not be visible, or damaging the laquer finish.
