:) ghs makes a set and i believe the number is 3060 longs that will sound realy sweet on your frettless without the worry of your fretboard getting chewed up. they are nylon wound and have that great upright bass sounc to them. i've used them for years on my mia frettless jazz.

Yes.

Stainless Steel flats will have more bite than the nylons.

A standard gauge is around 45, 65, 85, 105...though flats might vary a little.
