To do that right, so that it'll play in tune, you'd need somebody make you one with a somewhat more shallow cup; smaller throat bore; and of course, a shank to fit the euphonium. I'm sure that somebody must already make such a thing, right out of the box. It also depends greatly on what tessitura you want to use the euphonium for. If you're going to use it to play written euphonium parts, you might just be better off learning to play the euphonium m.p. That's what Tony Clements does, but he adapts quickly to different m.p.'s.
