Hey - it's standard 6 string bass tuning so B-C, and these are the strings that came with the bass so don't have the exact string gauges unfortunately but usually high C would be around 0.025" to 0.032"

 

Thanks.

Thanks for that.

So does a low B with a 30" scale work ok..? I thought it might be a bit floppy?

It’s surprisingly solid! You need a bit of a lighter touch of course but if the bass was fretted I’d keep it as it works overall, just been scuppered but the fretlessness! 😂
