Although it's implementation dependent, you can remove concrete subclasses of AbstractColorChooserPanel by name.

This example removes all but the RGB panel:

AbstractColorChooserPanel[] ccPanels = chooser.getChooserPanels();
for (AbstractColorChooserPanel ccPanel : ccPanels) {
    System.out.println(ccPanel.getDisplayName());
    String name = ccPanel.getClass().getSimpleName();
    if (!"DefaultRGBChooserPanel".equals(name))
        tcc.removeChooserPanel(ccPanel);
}

This example restores the HSB panel:

for (AbstractColorChooserPanel ccPanel : ccPanels) {
    String name = ccPanel.getClass().getSimpleName();
    if ("DefaultHSBChooserPanel".equals(name))
        tcc.addChooserPanel(ccPanel);
}

You'll need to determine the desired name(s) empirically.
