Sounds like you need a truss rod adjustment. Does your bass buzz on all the frets or just higher up or lower down on the fret board? I wouldn't worry, changing strings the first time usually causes set-up problems especially if you change string gauge or even brand. Check the relief of the neck first adjust the truss rod then adjust the action(at the bridge ) if the buzzing continues.
