Peter,
Maybe nobody answered your actual question.
You can try shifting the position of all the rests with
\new TabStaff \with {
\override MultiMeasureRest #'staff-position = #1
\override Rest #'staff-position = #-1
}
The bug report that Phil started is generating activity, including the
proposal to let the shorter rests center on a space, rather than on a
line. This would be the output you get using version 2.16 with
\override Rest #'staff-position = 0
but for the quarter and shorter rests only. With the larger line-spacing
in the TabStaff, the lines barely clear the dots on a 16-rest.
The bug report is hungry for information about what high-quality engravers
of tablature do (because rests in tabalture are so rare).
