He played me it down the phone the other day, it sounded fantastic (it's an old-style 000-18 with a few modifications). I wondered years ago if he was being hypocritical, but then, he has never been the total English-basher that I have, he's always done all sorts of other stuff as well. He's a demon frailing banjo player as it happens, get him drunk enough! Taught me Blind Fiddler, big Dock Boggs fan.
