Re: Double Staff Tablature - No Stems is the Norm

[Mats Bengtsson]

Since you probably want to keep the stems in the ordinary
note staff, you could do it in
\context TabStaff
<<
   \override ...
   \partition
 >>

An alternative is to specify that you want this setting in all TabStaff 
contexts in your .ly file, by inserting
\layout{
 \context{
   \TabStaff
   \override ...
 }
}
somewhere at the top level of the file.
