Oops
Your answer works but there is something else I'd like to be able to do
(not to be greedy ...). I like to embed lots of
\set TabStaff.minimumFret = ...
in music to force the tab to be where I want it. I find that with a small
number of hints like this, I can avoid having to specify the string number
with \ as in e\2 to get an e on the 5th fret of the B string.
What I would love to do is embed those minimumFret settings in the music,
but then do something like this
minfret = ...
getRidOfTabSettings =
solo = \relative c' {
% in the tab, it will be open high E string
e
% in the tab it will be the 5th fret of the B string
\minfret 5
e
}
\score {
<<
\new Staff { \getRidOfTabSettings \solo}
\new TabStaff \solo
>>
}
