Is an American that speaks with no regional dialect considered having "no accent" in Europe or does it still sound like John Wayne to those who are taught British English?

It sounds American to us. We can also tell a New Yorker from a Texan.

I for example speak in an amalgam of both accents.

Never come across a "no accent" American. Any examples?

Yeah I realized how shittily that was structured as soon as I hit post, it's been a long day.

I've been taught received pronunciation, but bastardized it with constant American media influx.
Most slavs speak like your stereotypical russian, though.

Like in Deadwood, Seth Bullock and Al Swearengen are from Canada and England respectively, so compared to the other characters, they don't have much of a regional accent. Without knowing where they're from, they could be from any part of the US.

It sounds like "no accent" to me, because I'm so used to hearing American English.
British English sounds more like an accent to me.

Just watched some of him in Deadwood. I wouldn't be able to place him at all. His vowels are perhaps slightly longer so I'd guess North American but it's very slight and I knew from your post anyway.

Canadians used to be used for their voices for shows aimed at the US and Britain as they were accepted accents to both audiences.

My brother is currently in New York and he can't speak with black people, they don't understand him, and he doesn't understand them. He's Irish BTW.
