His instruments of choice are the synthesizer and piano. Although not claiming to be a guitarist, he has appeared on stage with a guitar a few times and is credited on albums for guitar work. During Depeche Mode’s Exciter Tour in 2001, VonAllen got to sing the chorus of the song “I Feel Loved” with Martin Gore, using Dave Gahan’s microphone.
