It varies but there are a couple of different "gages" which are 15,15L,16,16L,17,17L,18,and 19.Remember the higher the number the thinner they are, and the thinner it is more spin Will be generated but it will brake quicker. Also the L after the gage means that it is in between that gage size and the size after it.

∙ 13y agoThis is a personal preference. The tighter the strings are the more control you have, and the looser the strings are the more power you have. Basically, you want somewhere in between, not too tight, but not too loose either.

Hold on tight!
A tennis racquet is not a simple stick. It has a handle and a tight mesh across a circular frame that is used to hit the tennis ball back and forth.
Tight strings give better accuracy. There is less bounce in the strings, so less trampoline effect, making your shot more accurate, but less powerful.
No this is not true. Having a racquet strung tight does have an overall effect on how the racquet plays, but to say it will make it harder to serve is simply not true. Tighter strings can reduce the power potential of a tennis racquet but if the player has superb technique he/she may need to have the racquet strung tighter in order to maintain control on their serve.
I recently asked myself that same question and I think that they are from the tools that they use to pull the string tight and it wont affect the string at all.
Bass guitar strings should be tightened to the point where they are in tune. This generally doesnt require an incredibly tight wind, but there definitely will be a certain amount of tension when properly tuned.
The strings need to be long enough so that it can be stretched tight enough to produce the proper sound.
I would use 11-54's for Drop C tuning. That way it should still feel as tight as strings in standard tuning and it won't (or shouldn't) cause any problems with your neck or bridge.
booty shirts and tight belly shorts are typical.
