Sorry, i've not tested this much.
Which lilypond version do you use? That sample was tested (a bit,-) with
2.13.35, latest development so far. Well.. this works with 2.12 too, ive tried
just now.
First of all -- i'm not sure that this is the best (or even smart at all) way
to do "this" (and i am still not sure that i understood what's needed,-)
Anyway, please take a look -- this example produces ChoirStaff with two staves
if makeFor equals 'choir and produces single staff with \lowerMelody if
makeFor equals anything else.
How far this from a required result?
%--------------8<-----------------------
makeFor = #'choir
#(define myContainer (if (eq? makeFor 'choir)
"ChoirStaff"
"Devnull"))
#(define upperStaff (if (eq? makeFor 'choir)
"Staff"
"Devnull"))
upperMelody = \relative c'' {
c4 bes d c
}
lowerMelody = \relative c'' {
a4 g bes a
}
\score {
\new \myContainer <<
\new \upperStaff <<
\upperMelody
>>
\new Staff {
\lowerMelody
}
>>
}
%--------------8<-----------------------
I'm just interesting .-)
Playing with lilypond gives me a lot of fun and some experience, which can be
used later, for my own needs.
Or, if this is more convenient for you, could you post a small example ---
what you've tried and it wasn't work as desired?
Thanks.

Hello again,
I compiled your example, but it didn't compile without errors. I did
get the results you got, however.
I changed your code to obtain what I expected your code to produce:
======================
%{
Example of variable stafftype with scheme funtions
%}
\version "2.13.32"
makeFor = #'piano
%makeFor = #'choir
%#(define myContainer (if (eq? makeFor 'choir)
% "ChoirStaff"
% "Devnull"))
myContainer =
#(if (eq? makeFor 'choir) "ChoirStaff" "PianoStaff")
%#(define upperStaff (if (eq? makeFor 'choir)
% "Staff"
% "Devnull"))
upperStaff =
#(if (eq? makeFor 'choir) "Staff" "Devnull")
upperMelody = \relative c'' {
c4 bes d c
}
lowerMelody = \relative c'' {
a4 g bes a
}
\score {
\new \myContainer <<
\new \upperStaff
{
\set Staff.instrumentName = \myContainer
<<
\upperMelody
>>
}
\new Staff {
\lowerMelody
}
>>
}
======================
By setting the instrumentName to \myContainer I checked what was
actually happening. In your example an unrecoverable error occurred.
The above example is bug-free in the \version used.
I'll try to work this to a code for omitting the tablature staff, and
post it here.
