There was a matching Junior style guitar that paired with this one. Really great guitars. It's been a while since we worked on this one, but if memory serves, there was a deeper tenon in the neck pocket. The problem was that the neck actually broke - and not on the glue line. So we had to work with what we had. But it's enough; this repair will last until someone goes Townshend on it again.

I'm shocked at how little glueable surface their is on that guitar. It looks like it had a pickguard which I don't think came stock with a Hamer. Nice job! Don’t Gibsons have a tenon?
