Things you are really good at by accident? or learned without realising

Like Adamm, palm muting. I did it by accident and realised that was the sound I was looking for. It's one of only two things I do reasonably well on guitar. The other is timing, but that's because I was playing the drums for 30 odd years before I took up the guitar. Basically, I like a bit of a chug.

Stealing!

I’m pretty good at picking up on things like vibrato, pick attack, and other bits, then adjusting mine to do a relatively convincing impression.

Not sure how useful it is, but it’s something I enjoy doing.

I found tapping easy from when I first tried. Makes up for such poor picking accuracy.

When I play in front of anybody, people normally remark that I have a particularly light touch and that it's not a bad thing. However for much the same reason, it's because I'm a bit apologetic when I play or sing but it just comes across as though I'm trying to have a subtle gentle touch.

Somebody. Get this guy a mahogany slab with P90s and a cranked valve amplifier. Work the full dynamic range. Extract some rude noises.
