Err, good point - sorry.  First link that I found was: http://www.scenicnewengland.net/guitar/notate/symbols.htm

... and that has vibrato as the last thing example of notation listed.

Hi Martyn,

Since the image you provide does not reflect LilyPond grobs I can give you 2 options which look close :

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.18.2"

{

  \once\override TextSpanner.style = #'trill

  \once\override TextSpanner.minimum-length = #10

  \once\override TextSpanner.springs-and-rods = #ly:spanner::set-spacing-rods

  c''2\startTextSpan s\stopTextSpan

}

{

  \once\override TextSpanner.style = #'zigzag

  \once\override TextSpanner.minimum-length = #10

  \once\override TextSpanner.springs-and-rods = #ly:spanner::set-spacing-rods

  c''2\startTextSpan s\stopTextSpan

}

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

HTH,

Pierre
