Thank you all, it's very encouraging to get so many responses within minutes!
I had read the documentation and tried to apply a \grace s8 to the bass part, but without understanding of my score block, it didn't solve the problem. I've applied Francisco Villa's solution and it works perfectly. I think I get your proposition, Toine, and it seems a little more "DRY", which I rather like... but my understanding of what the different definitions of voice / staff / global are, as well as things being part of a sequence or a simultaneous voice is still weak. Can anyone point out an article / document of sorts which helps understand the basics? I've had my eyes on and inside the documentation, but I feel like some basics are just missing.
