Description
If you love boutique guitars with bags of character, this Hansen S-Style is for you. Handcrafted in Denmark by luthier Henning Hansen, it blends traditional craftsmanship with premium components. Hansen’s been making instruments since 1984, so there’s a wealth of experience behind every build.
This S-Style features a lightweight Khaya Mahogany body, known for its warmth and punchy mid-range — with a surprising amount of top-end clarity too. The guitar comes loaded with Hansen’s own hand-wound ‘AlNiCo’ 5 single-coils, delivering that legendary S-style sparkle with extra depth and character. Throw in a silky Rosewood fingerboard, high-quality hardware and a stunning ultra-light relic finish, and you’ve got a guitar that’ll make you want to play all day!
Key Features
- Handmade in Denmark: Each Hansen guitar is a labour of love, crafted by hand using premium components and tonewoods. The result? A real artisan-quality instrument with a unique voice and feel that stands out from the crowd.
- Khaya Mahogany body: This African Mahogany variant offers a rich, resonant tone with a warm low end and crisp mids — perfect for everything from clean picking to gritty blues leads.
- Ultra light relic finish: The aged finish gives the guitar a vintage vibe without going overboard. It looks and feels like a well-loved instrument that’s been gigged for years, but with all the reliability of a brand-new build.
- Rosewood fingerboard: Adds warmth and depth to your sound with a smooth feel under the fingers. The 12” radius is a real treat for modern players too.
- Hansen tremolo: Add subtle vibrato to chords and lead lines with rock-solid tuning stability.
- Kluson tuners: These vintage-style machine heads hold tuning well and boost the guitar’s old-school vibe.
