This is pretty common as you develop a kind of memory for pitch color for the instrument you play all the time. Piano players often are able to recognize the exact pitches on their own instrument. But that's different from perfect pitch which isn't bound to a color/timbre/specific instrument.
I agree with lucey, having perfect pitch in a rock/pop enviroment probably is a very painful experience!
