Which is the most common way.
To be complete, sometimes it has advantages to use applyOutput:

solo =
  \relative c' {
    \applyOutput TabStaff
      #(lambda (g c1 c2) (ly:context-set-property! c1 'minimumFret 1))
    \applyOutput TabStaff
      #(lambda (g c1 c2) (ly:context-set-property! c1 'restrainOpenStrings #t))

    c8   f e e d c b a
  }

\new Staff \solo

\new TabStaff \solo



Note the settings for _Tab_Staff in 'solo' never affect the standalone Staff.
