Jim,

This buddy of mine, a recording engineer and a brilliant muso... pianist and bass guitarist has learned perfect pitch... He never had it but learned it in the last four years or so... It was not with one of these courses but it came with time... He can now tell me that my third string from the top is out just by listening to me play while I am on stage and he is at the control board... not playing lead but full rhtym... He identifies chords as 13ths 7ths sus4's etc. and of course the best of all he tells you what note it is. He can actually tell you, to within a couple of Hz what the frequency of the feedback is you are getting. I have tested him by playing the notes and looking at the frequency he suggested and he was never out by very much... I must add that he is a musical wizz and always have been...

I wish i could do it though...
