Here is the template I use for a combination chords / standard / tab staff - with the A minor pentatonic scale starting on the 5th fret.

\version "2.6.0"

\header
{
        title = "A minor pentatonic scale"
        composer = "none"
        meter = "you choose"
}

% ----- GUITAR -----

gtr = \relative c
{
        \key a \minor
        \time 4/4

       % NOTES ARE ENTERED NORMALLY
       % WITH STRING NUMBER AFTER A BACKSLASH "\"
        a8\6 c\6 d\5 e\5 g\4 a\4 c\3 d\3 e\2 g\2 a\1 c\1

        \bar "|."
}

guitar = {
        \set Staff.instrument = #"Guitar"
        \set Staff.midiIntrument = "electric guitar (jazz)"
        \clef treble
        \context Staff << \gtr >>
}

guitartab = {
        \context TabStaff << \gtr >>
}

% ----- CHORDS -----

chordline = \chordmode
{
        a1:m
}

% ----- SCORE -----

\score
{
        <<
                \context ChordNames = chords \chordline
                \context Staff = guitar \guitar
                \context TabStaff = guitar \guitartab
        >>
        \layout { }
        \midi { \tempo 4=120 }
}

Hi.
Is there anyone who can send me an example on a a blues scale with tab starting on 5. fret? (or somthing similar)

I really cant figure out how to tell lilypond exactly where to specify the tab...

Please.

Jannik
