This is not reading it's just knowing that fret (5) is C F A D and fret (2) is A D F# B. being able to know the name of any fret on any string like second nature.

- Reading TAB & Chord Grids — TAB or Tablature is a form of musical notation, which tells players where to place their fingers on a particular instrument rather than which pitches to play. Generally speaking, TAB or tablature is commonly used by informally trained musicians in folk, popular and rock music.
I think anything that separates guitar (ukulele) players from the rest of the music world is bad. Tablature is a certain secret code only for a guitar player. So you have guitar players who can read tablature and not music.
