Another of the several Collings guitar used by Conor Oberst

Used in Desaparecidos according to a Nov 2015 rig run down for Premier Guitar.

'This is Conor’s second Danelectro ’56 Baritone. Denver commented that this particular bari is a lot darker sounding than the metal-flake behemoth so that’s why it doesn’t get used as much.'

Used in Desaparecidos according to a Nov 2015 rig run down for Premier Guitar.

'The reason bassist Hedges goes for guitar on some songs is because Oberst switches from his LP Junior to this Danelectro ’56 Baritone featuring a beautiful metal flake finish and two fat lipstick pickups.'

Used in Desaparecidos according to a Nov 2015 rig run down for Premier Guitar.

'Frontman and guitarist Conor Oberst uses nothing but Gibson Les Paul Juniors. This one is a 2000s model and boasts Grolsch bottlecaps and gaff tape as functioning straplocks.'

Conor can be seen playing an Airline guitar in New York, in this article for Rolling Stone in 2011. He's discussing the making of Bright Eyes album 'The People's Key'.

Conor has gone through many phases on guitars he uses. Early 2000's he started with the Danelectros and had a few Teisco.

Conor has been using a maple-necked Fender Telecaster on stage for his 2017 tour, as seen in this video.

Used in Desaparecidos.

According to a rig rundown in Premier Guitar Nov 2015:

'No matter if it’s a rumbling baritone or a buzz-sawing Junior, Oberst plugs both 6-strings into this Divided By 13 RPB 19/37, which uses two 6V6s in the 19-watt mode and two EL34s in the 37-watt mode.'

According to Premier Guitar in Nov 2015, in Desaparecidos: 'Conor only uses a few stompboxes for his core live tone—a Boss TU-3 Tuner, ZVEX Box of Rock, EarthQuaker Devices Monarch and Organizer, and a disengaged Ibanez AD9 Analog Delay. His main dirtbox is the ZVEX Box of Rock, the Organizer is used for one part in a song during the set, and the Monarch is another drive, specifically-EQ’d for when he plays the baritones. Everything on the board is powered by a Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2 Plus power supply.'
