how about
barre = #(define-music-function (bend location str ) (number?)
#{
\once \override FretBoard.before-line-breaking =
#(lambda (grob)
;(display (ly:grob-property grob 'dot-placement-list))
(ly:grob-set-property! grob 'dot-placement-list
(cons `(barre 6 1 ,str) (ly:grob-property grob 'dot-placement-list))))
#})
fMajorEShape = { <f,-1 c-3 f-4 a-2 c'-1 f'-1> }
gMajorEShape = { \transpose f g { \fMajorEShape } }
\new FretBoards {
\barre #1
\transpose f g { \fMajorEShape }
\barre
\gMajorEShape
\barre #3
<g,-1 d-3 g-4 b-2 d'-1 g'-1>
\set FretBoards.minimumFret = #3
\barre #4
\gMajorEShape
}
