I sent that post on Monday August 24th at about 17:00 UTC. It never
appeared on the list for reasons I do not know. For another trial I send
that mail again.
I cannot tell you the reason
#'( -5 -10 -15 -20)
does not work. But I can tell you how I do it:
%~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
\version "2.18.0"
five-bass = \stringTuning < b,, e, a, d g >
yourmusic = {
\key g \minor
R1*12
r8 bes'8\1 bes'\1 bes'\1 r8 a'\1 a'\1 a'\1 r
c''\1 c''\1 c''\1 r bes'\1 bes'\1 bes'\1
r bes'\1 bes'\1 bes'\1 r a'\1 a'\1 a'\1 r
d''\1 d''\1 d''\1 r d''\1 d''\1 d''\1
r8 bes'8\1 bes'\1 bes'\1 r8 a'\1 a'\1 a'\1 r
c''\1 c''\1 c''\1 r bes'\1 bes'\1 bes'\1
r bes'\1 bes'\1 bes'\1 r a'\1 a'\1 a'\1 d''\1
d''\1 d''\1 d''\1 d''\1 d''\1 d''\1 d''\1
}
\score {
\new StaffGroup <<
\new TabStaff <<
%\set TabStaff.stringTunings = #'( -5 -10 -15 -20)
\set TabStaff.stringTunings = #five-bass
{
\yourmusic
}
>>
>>
\layout{}
}
%~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That even works with \version "2.12.3".
If you really have a 6 string bass extend the string list. I think to
six-bass = \stringTuning <b,, e, a, d g c'>

Thanks for the help everyone,
I would up changing the stringTungings line to:
\set Staff.stringTunings = \stringTuning <e,, a,, d, g,>
And everything works fine. However, I also tried the notaion:
\set Staff.stringTunings = #bass-tuning
but that didn't work. I'll have to figure that out at a later time.
All-in-all, I installed mediawiki with the Score plugin to show off a
few guitar tabs I transcribed a few years ago. If you're curious, the
first one (that now works) is here:

Run convert-ly -ed on the file. At least on
your example file, it
upgraded the version
successfully. The resulting code is rather ugly
but works. You might want to look up the
\stringTuning function in the
notation
manual in order to do this in a prettier way.
