I have "perfect" pitch, except it's not as perfect as my brother's. We can both easily identify up to 2-3 simultaneous notes/sounds, but he's better than I am at tuning an instrument without a reference, and slightly better at producing correct notes on demand (i.e. whistling) as opposed to recognizing sounds.
I wonder if this has to do with us carrying two different copies of the responsible gene/mutation.
We both received musical training as kids but he had more than I, so that can't be ruled out.
