what gauge strings on Ibanez

I just got an Ibanez SR505 and wondered if anyone out there knows what gauge (and make) strings these come with from the factory. The store didn't seem to know.

.045 to .105 + .130

This has changed from prior years. They used to use .045 to .095 + .125.

Ibanez over the past few years string the mid-high priced ($400-$1500) basses with Elixir's.

Thanks guys. It sounds nice, but I think I'll end up changing to half wounds (never tried those before, but liked my old flat wounds, so maybe a middle road would be a nice change)

Half rounds are lousy stay away from them.
