I think the problem is that you are trying to put the melody and bass into
the same Voice context. If you don't want Lilypond to give them common
stems, you need to put them in different voices.

\score {
     \context Staff = guitar <
         \global
         \context Voice = melodyVoice \melody
         \context Voice = bassVoice   \bass
      >
  \paper {
    gourlay_maxmeasures =8.;
    \translator { \BarNumberingStaffContext }
  }
}

Disclaimer: I'm at work and haven't actually tried this. I'm sure you'll let
us know if it does not work.

lily spits out a bunch of "warning: Adding note head to incompatible
stem" messages on it, then prints it with all the melody stems
pointing down instead of up.
