Stock strings on Bongo?

Searched, but did not find the answer to this question:

What are the stock strings on the Bongo 5? Model and gauge.

Thanks.

Good question. I'm interested too.

Lord BoNgo or Jon will know that one

why are 5 string sets lighter than 4 string sets?

In fact, they aren't:
The stock set on 4-string Stingrays is 2834 : .045/.065/.080/.100 - that's the same gauge as on the 5-String Rays.
