Yes, it is possible to take the flair off of a 2XJ recording bell, fabricate a straight section from sheet brass, and join them together to make an upright bell. This is easily (a relative term) done because the recording bell is of 2 piece construction. It won't match an original upright bell because those are one piece, but I have heard of several repair people who have done this. Of course you then no longer have a recording bell, but that's a decision one would have to make.
