Oops. That's what I get for not going back over my archived email.
At the present time, I can only easily sight-read bass and treble
clef for keyboards and bass clef for bass. I can wade through
single-note lines in treble clef on the guitar but the strain of
deciding which strings and frets to use on a four-note chord is a
bit much for me. Tablature together with standard notation would
help here tremendously.
I know, I could transcribe my own tab, but it raises the barrier so
that it becomes a "one of these days" projects. I've got two bands
to rehearse and practice for plus informal gigs plus a family and a
day-job so I have to prioritize.

Please. However, doesn't a rootless voicing rely on the bass line to
some extent?
