Not to be too controversial, but I just don't hear it.

Estrin and Wilson play great stuff acoustically using hand wah wah, but it still sounds like a cheap imitation to me. Sonny Boy had this amazing ability to play the notes "wheezy" which they don't have, and when they do it, it all sounds so clean...

To me, no one has properly nailed Sonny Boy's style. And it's just as well, since I'd rather musicians went for their own style...
