I don't have one, but would like to - I've mentioned this before, but if they were around when I first got interested in CF it probably would have been my choice. (I have a pre-peavey CA-GX)
I did have one for a week, twice - once with the original voicing and then one with the newer 2013 voicing when MacNichol was doing the roadtrips. I like to play blues/rags etc too and it was a great fit for that, and I do like 00 sized guitars and it was very comfortable. Although it's not a "travel" guitar, for me it is a good travel size and nice and light. In fact it went camping with me for a few days the week I had it and was easy to throw in the back in it's gig bag.
I set the later one up for lap slide playing at one stage (with a nut extender) and it was great for that, too! The only thing I didn't really like about it was the plastic-y tuning buttons. I think it would work great, or probably even better, in ekoa.
