It is a silly number of strings for a bass guitar. It really becomes a different instrument that just happens to look a bit like a bass.

Low B, I can understand, but a high C?
For a guy who also plays guitar that just does my head in. But if I think purely Bass, it does make sense. Still too many strings to contemplate.
On a long scale neck I'd probably tune it B - B and on a 30" scale E - E like my old Fender VIQuote:
