You should be more specific, they're not all alike. I currently have in my possession a 1919 True Tone and 1922 or 1923 True Tone, and the tenon size of the 1920's instrument is a fair bit smaller than that of the 1919, and the octave pip is about an inch closer to the mouthpiece. It's also smaller in diameter at the mouthpiece end.

That's why I say in my ad (I'm selling the 20's True Tone) that I do not guarantee any of the parts will fit on any other instrument. I already have proof that in at least one case, they won't.

The tenon dimension varies on both Buescher and Conn C Mels...not necessarily specific to year.
King necks, conversely, are interchangeable, as their tenon diameters appear to be identical.
