I do not recall seeing anyone do this before; but I do not see why it would not work.

I think Stanley Clarke does something like this with his setup where he sends the bridge output to a guitar amp in order to get some crunch.
 
I tried it recently with my rig at home when I wasn't getting enough  sound volume out of my  2 X10. It seems to work ok but I wouldn't really want to carry all the kit of my bass rig and my Fender Twin guitar amp to a gig.
 
You may want to try running the High pass out into the return socket of the amp to avoid overloading the pre-amp section of your guitar amp. It's also much quieter too.
The sound of Alembic is medicine for the soul!

ben non franchement ... le low pass est r?gl? par le bouton devant, tu n'auras que des fr?quences basses ... c'est un cross-over ... il te faut un ampli de sono et 2 hp diff?rents (15 pour low et 12 + horn pour high). Je n'utilise pas le cross over mais la sortie fullrange qui va sur un splitter Behringer http://www.behringer.com/MX882/index.cfm?lang=FRE
De ce splitter, j'alimente les 2 canaux de mon ampli de puissance et je peux rajouter encore six autres amplis ... dont mon Roland Jazz Chorus 160
Jazzyvee, Stanley use a Mackie mixer to send the signal trough the guitar amp.
