I did not notice that yet. But following this commit on April 11, 2017: https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/3125/files to fix this issue: #186876: Regression: notes for bass guitars show in wrong octave in normal staff vs. tablature staff , I notice that now, the tuning of the bass instruments (ie Bass Guitar, Acoustic bass, Electric 4 and 5 str. Bass) is wrong, don’t match with the usable pitch range.

I'm afraid this is currently by design. It had been discussed back then.
String data does not seem to take transpositioning into account. and fixing that would probably cause compatibility issues so might be something for master, but not for 2.x
