Perfect or absolute pitch is the ability to recognize all notes as easily as you can recognize colors. Play a random note on a piano and someone with perfect pitch could tell you what it was without looking. But I saw an interview where Guthrie says he does not anyway. Just a good ear.
Storytellers no but he can recall what an open e string sounds like so that would be a reference point. But he says that this drifts further and further away if he goes for a time without playing.
thatguywhodoesstuff Guthrie started playing when he was three. It's hard to really say if he has perfect pitch or not but he can mimic everything perfectly. If Guthrie really has perfect pitch, he wouldn't tell it because he knows musicians without perfect pitch would get discouraged
One of the few fusion shredders who stay connected even during the fastest licks.
Guthrie has unlimited source of improvisation ideas xD

He started playing late. I think about age 9. He can't have perfect pitch so late, but I sure as hell bet he's got a good relative pitch
