Hi all,

Standard Electric basses have four strings, so that would probably be
useful to most people using a Bass/Tab template. That being said--5, 6,
7 and more strings are becoming more and more common all the time.
Currently Frescobaldi's Bass and Electric Bass template inherit the basic
TablaturePart features also found in the other tablature instruments, When
tablature (TabStaff) is chosen, it presents the tuning option Bass Tuning
(stringTunings = #bass-tuning). If you choose bass tuning, the TabStaff
template has four strings. Is that good, or should I add support for other
options/tuning?
I think four strings is good, but maybe it would be nice to have a
possibility to choose also five strings if you got an five string
bass... (I didn't know there are six string basses too, until David told
it...)
I like to provide UI options for the predefined LilyPond tunings (that are in
the docs) and I'm a bit reluctant to add custom tunings, but of course it
would be possible to even create a small Custom Tuning Wizard inside the score
wizard. Please let me know if that would be an important feature for any of
you, or if you have any other wishes/bug report regarding Frescobaldi in
general (or use the bug tracker[1]) or it's tablature instrument support in
particular.
