That Eminence driver looks to be giving useful output up to about 5kHz, after which it drops down quite quickly, so removing the crossover and the HF driver will make that treble available from the 10” drivers.
The bass and mid controls on guitar amps are normally up an octave from those on bass amps, plus your amp’s are just subtractive, so you may find a bass graphic EQ pedal (or a wider range pedal with more bands than say a Boss guitar graphic pedal has), useful in sculpting your bass sound.
