I have a '62 VRepro PBass w/ a 34" scale. How do I choose between medium, medium-long, and long strings? I also could use an explanation of tapered vs. non-tapered strings. MTW

I use rotosound swing bass on my basses... long scale
long scale are for the 34'' scale basses really... any smaller scale the strings might not reach the tuning posts!! thats my opinion anyway!!

Taperwound Strings, I use fender ones for my 5 string american standard Jazz Bass cause its string through body, they suit the bass better that non taperwound strings!! Check out a picture of an american standard bass, taperwound E string for a four string bass... five string... the B and E string are taperwound
