Hi, Andrew -
I used this to indicate a slide up into a note.
\version "2.19.49"
{
a'
\once \override Glissando.springs-and-rods = #ly:spanner::set-spacing-rods
\once \override Glissando.minimum-length = #4.5
\once \hideNotes
{ \grace b'8 \glissando } c''4.
a''8
}

Hi, Andrew -
I used this to indicate a slide up into a note. You should be able to
adjust the length and slope reasonably easily.
\version "2.19.49"
{
a'
\once \override Glissando.springs-and-rods = #ly:spanner::set-spacing-rods
\once \override Glissando.minimum-length = #4.5
\once \hideNotes
{ \grace b'8 \glissando } c''4.
a''8
}
HTH,
Ralph
