"My #1 is a 2010 Gibson Les Paul Traditional Plus in Honey Burst finish," says Hansen. "After trying thirty or forty Les Paul guitars around town in my pursuit for the ultimate one, I just couldn't find a guitar that I bonded with. I decided to take a gamble and order a brand new Traditional, straight from Gibson's factory through Long & McQuade... Wow. This guitar has been there by my side since that fateful April day in 2010. It's the best guitar I've ever owned, and I've owned quite a few over the last couple years. I have yet to modify it other than having a bone nut installed. The playability and tone are superb, and it's a testament to why Gibson guitars have the name they do."
