Jeff; that would be B - E - A - D like standard tuning on a 5 string, as opposed to E - A - D - G.  In addition to replacing the nut, you may also want to replace the bridge saddles.

That's right, the string sizes are .132, .100, .080, and .065. I have D'Addario Chromes on it now. I like the flatwounds on the fretless. As far as I know, only the nut was replaced.

Nice piece...I wish I could play fretless...it's probably not a good idea to try and learn on an $8000 bass, though. LOL!
