Since this is a fretless, I don't see any reason not to have the lowest action possible (distance between strings and fingerboard), because there are no wories about fret buzz 
Is there a way to lower the strings?
Be careful before you consider lowering the strings! The mass and friction of the thick silicone or polyurethane strings causes them to move a bit less predictably when compared to conventional metal-wound bass strings. I'd be more than a little concerned that the "E" and "A" strings would cause more problems than the lowered action might benefit you. My guess is that Fender has done quite a bit of testing before settling on the current action. To my knowledge, there is no adjustment available other than an irreversible go at the saddle and nut with a file. Additionally, it's not like you can hit up a luthier for a quick readjustment if you don't like the results.
