Is it likely that Lilypond will provide such tablature at some
stage?
Currently, if I want to typeset tablature, I need to use
different
software.
LilyPond already supports this type of tablature: You have to
set the
tablatureFormat to #fret-letter-tablature, set a string tuning
including
bass strings, and maybe change the default fret labels to not
include j.
The rhythm can be added in a separate RhythmicStaff; maybe one
could
extract it somehow from the music using a music function (might
be
tricky with polyphonic music) but of course it can also be done
by hand.
\version "2.19.53"
% maybe this could be automatically extracted from mel?
rh = {
4*3 8*2 4. 8*5 4*2 8*4 16*4 8. 16 8*2 4 2*2 1
}
mel = \relative {
a,,4 b c d8 e f4. g8
a b c d e4 f g8
a b c d16 e f g
a8. b16 c8 cis d4
d,2 d, d,1
}
\score {

\new RhythmicStaff \rh
\new TabStaff \mel
\new Staff { \clef "treble_8" \mel }

stringTunings = \stringTuning <a, d f a d' f'>
additionalBassStrings = \stringTuning <a,, b,, c, d, e,
f, g,>
% don’t use j as a fret label:
%fretLabels = #'("a" "b" "c" "d" "e" "f" "g" "h" "i" "k")
}

%\override Flag.stencil = #old-straight-flag
% 3. other note head shape or no note heads:
%\override NoteHead.style = #'petrucci
%\omit NoteHead
}
}
