sign is the element inside MusicXML's clef element that indicates the type of clef. Its values include clef letters such as G, F, and C, percussion for percussion instruments, TAB for guitar tablature, and none for no displayed clef. The accompanying line element specifies the staff line number on which the clef sits, and clef-octave-change specifies an octave shift; together the three fully describe a single clef.
