[quote name='JPAC' post='1229298' date='May 12 2011, 08:50 PM']Is there anything to do to a little used bass?[/quote]

If you mean you're not planning on using it for a while, then slacken off the strings before putting it away in it's case.

If you mean you're wanting to use it and it's not been played for a while then, if it's a rosewood neck, consider giving it an oil.
A new set of strings might not go amiss as well.
