Here is the problem. If I want to create an electric guitar tab, I cannot use the preset Electric Guitar (Tablature) when creating the score. I must use the electric guitar preset and then change the staff property from standard to common, simple or full tab.
(see animation below)

Test 1 : Try to create an electric guitar tab from the preset Electric Guitar Tablature : not possible !
Test 2 : Create an electric guitar tab from the preset Electric Guitar then changing the staff property : ok
Test 3 : Try to create a system with electric guitar staff and tab from 2 presets Electric Guitar then changing the staff property to create a tab on the lower part: ok !

I use Windows 7 home Premium 64 bits, with the latest nightly built (MuseScoreNightly-2013-09-25-1809-1d79cc0)...
Sorry but what is the GIT commit ?

You just included it (1d79cc0) :).

If you go to 'About MuseScore', you can click to copy it.

Alternatively, you can use 'Report a bug' under 'Help'.

It appears that the Tab staff type is not being read from the instruments.xml file.

Either that or the syntax has been changed so that the xml file is no longer correct.
