I think most pianists will not be able to read tab and the best they could do is ad lib from chord symbols. If the sheet is only tab with chord symbols, that's a hard case. If the melody is included - like on most lead sheets - then the pianist can play the melody with an ad lib accompaniment. A pianist could ad lib from those sheets.
