    String gauge for Eb?

    To be honest, I'm as stupid as a fish when it comes to strings on bass so I'm here asking for help. At the moment I have my bass set up for Eb so I can still tune up to E and tune down to C# comfortably, and I've got no idea what string gauge I have, and I don't know how or if I can find out...
