Re: Double Staff Tablature - No Stems is the Norm

[Mats Bengtsson]

You can easily remove the stems:
\new TabStaff {
 \override Stem #'transparent = ##t
      a,4\5 c'\2 a\3 e'\1
      e\4 c'\2 a\3 e'\1
    }

I no nothing about the notation practice for tab staff, but if you are 
certain that this is common enough to deserve a place in the 
documentation, please see 
http://lilypond.org/web/devel/participating/documentation-adding
or add an example to the LSR.
