If you want to hide notes both in Staff and in TabStaff you can use
this command (maybe the name is not so appropriate, choose what you
prefer):

hideFretNumber = {
  \once \override TabNoteHead #'transparent = ##t 
  \once \override TabNoteHead #'whiteout = ##f 
  \once \override NoteHead #'transparent = ##t 
  \once \override Stem #'transparent = ##t
  \once \override NoteHead #'no-ledgers = ##t 
  \once \override Accidental #'transparent = ##t 
}

In the tablature mailing list they are discussing the idea of adding
such a command:
hideTabNoteHead = {
  \once \override TabNoteHead #'transparent = ##t
  \once \override TabNoteHead #'whiteout = ##f
}

Marc (or Carl), can you make a summary of what's happening?
Thanks,
Federico
