Rivers Cuomo used a cream DiMarzio DP100 Super Distortion pickup in the neck position of his Custom Warmoth Stratocasters, as documented on Weezerpedia.

He used a Gibson Les Paul during the "Maladroit" tour throughout 2002. He had two color models: a gold, as seen in the picture and a sunburst, which he used when the band was on Letterman in 2002.

In this photo, Cuomo is visible playing black Ibanez V70CE. This photo comes from Weezer's concert at Virgin Mobile Freefest, on 30th of August, 2009.

In this photo we can see a (slightly modded) Whirlwind Selector A/B Box.

Rivers used the Seymour Duncan humbucker for his bridge pickup on his Warmoth Custom Stratocasters.

Can be found under the "Spr/Sum Touring" section of this article.

Rivers is seen here at Weezer's Bethlehem 2019 set playing an alpine white '61 reissue Gibson SG Standard. He's seen using the guitar in the music video for the band's single "If You're Wondering If I Want You To (I Want You To)".

Used in the Pork and Beans and We are all on Drugs videos.

In this photo, Rivers appears to be using Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2.

In this video, Cuomo is playing "Unspoken", in a video he has done for Rolling Stone, somewhere in 2010.

At the second paragraph in the "1993-signed" section of this article, it explains River's 8x10 cabinet.

"The one thing Rivers did manage to select before they left for New York was a new Marshall speaker cabinet. Well, it wasn't "new", it was a very unusual 1968 Marshall. This cabinet was from a now-rare series that mounted the usual 4 12" speakers into a special cabinet that was designed to fit 8 10" speakers. These are known as "mock 8x10's". They originally were sold in sets with plexi 50w Tremolo amps. They were manufactured from 1967 till the early 70's, but apparently the later years are distinguished by cheaper materials, particularly particle board backing panels. ...Thanks to Jaques Stompboxes for info and assistance!"

It is also shown in the cover of River's album "Alone".

In this picture of River's board, you can clearly see an M that matches up with Tremonti wah

Rivers Cuomo uses the Perri's 2.5" Italian Leather Guitar Strap with Lightning Bolt for his acoustic guitars during solo performances. This strap is similar to the one he uses with his Warmoth Custom Stratocasters, as shown in a user-uploaded photo on Medium.

In this page on Weezerpedia https://www.weezerpedia.com/w/index.php?title=Rivers_Cuomo%27s_equipment In equipment history In the 1993 “After Blue” section it says “…and the other was a cream colored DiMarzio that was almost certainly a SuperDistortion2 (I have learned that the"Humbucker from Hell" only came in the yellow and red model that was in the red Strat).”

He used Humbucker From Hell in neck position of his guitar.

Used in this performance of happy hour

Mentions using it during the Pinkerton recording

He used this piano for recording of "Raditude", as visible on 1:55 minute mark.

"In late 1994, Rivers purchased a vintage Electrocomp 101 monophonic synthesizer from a pawn shop in rural Connecticut. He paid a fraction of what these things are currently valued at by collectors. It saw use on several "Black Hole" demos, and finally appeared on Pinkerton's "Tired Of Sex" , "Getchoo", and B-side "I Just Threw Out The Love of My Dreams". He still has it today."

Mentioned having used in for "Buddy Holly"

In this Youtube video of the encore at a Weezer Road Trip tour show at Breese Stevens Field in Madison, Wisconsin, Rivers Cuomo can be seen playing a Fender Player Plus Meteora HH in Belair Blue. Cuomo seems to use it exclusively for the encore of the shows on this tour.

Used to perform "Happy Hour"

This was used on his famous Warmoth Strat "Blue" and his other Strat from Warmoth.

On Weezerpedia it says,'' For an amplifier, Rivers used a Randall 120-Watt solid state head powering a matching 4x12 Randall cabinet. The speaker cabinet (pictured on the left side of the Blue Album garage picture) continues to be sold and resold. And has been spotted as recently as late 2000 in LA's "Recycler" Magazine.''

In the first paragraph of the ''PRE 1992'' section of River's Equipment it says, '' Rivers had a Charvel Stratocaster-style guitar, a "Model 2" that was plain white, but was repainted by Rivers in purple acrylic paint, including the headstock, which was originally black. According to a fan who is familiar with Charvel guitars, the Model 2 didn't have a pickguard, had a bolt-on neck, only had one humbucker, and had a Jackson made Floyd Rose copy for its bridge. This guitar was left over from Rivers's metal days and was only used reluctantly at this point. This guitar met its end during a Weezer practice sometime later, when it was smashed to pieces. The broken headstock visible inside the first album photograph of the garage is from that guitar. No pieces remain today as far as I know. ''

In this image of the Reading Festival 2002, Rivers can be seen playing a Fender Stratocaster with a sunburst finish with a humbucker on the bridge and a single coil sized humbucker jb jr on the neck. Also the guitar appears to be full of stickers of Elmo and Pikachu for some reason.

Rivers Cuomo might have used a white Fender Telecaster with a rosewood neck and a neck humbucker, during the recording of the Blue Album. This guitar was given to Jason Cropper after Rivers was given Jason's modded Strat. This is confirmed by a user-uploaded photo.
