I'm building an acoustic bass guitar. The circumference around top and bottom are about 68". I need to find extra-long binding. I'd prefer wood, but at this point, I'll take plastic. Do you have any idea where I can find some?

Alternatively, if such a thing doesn't exist, can you tell me what acoustic bass guitar builders do for bindings for these large guitars?

Make your own. Quite simple if you have a decent table saw.
