By convention, double-bass and electric bass are notated using a
standard bass clef with the understanding that the notes sound one
octave lower than they appear on the staff. Guitar is the same way, but
it is becoming more common to to use a modern tenor clef (i.e.
"treble_8") now than in the past. I'm not sure whether the same is true
for bass. Perhaps there is a bass meister on the list who knows better
than I?
Generally, either is considered acceptable and which one you use is a
matter of editorial preference. For completeness, it would probably be a
good idea if there were an easy way to do either.

If this is the most used way, ( \clef "bass_8" for Acoustic or
Electric Bass), I could add that to Frescobaldi's default template.
Is this the most used notation for such parts?
I'm not 100% sure. David do you know this?
