Speaking for myself(and in my experience this is pretty representative of most Americans) the English are easily distinguished from the Scottish and Irish (I recognize you didn't ask about Irish, j/s).
Welsh is much much much less distinguishable for most of us. I've known a Welshman from the Mike Keneally newsgroup for over ten years, back when the group was highly active in the first half of the '00's I made the mistake of calling him English instead of Welsh on several occasions, and so did most of us.
