John Avila's Gear
John Avila uses a Vigier Passion 4-String Bass for his work with Oingo Boingo and other projects, as shown in the user-uploaded photo.

Avila, who generally played bass guitar in Oingo Boingo's heyday, often preferred a bass voiced keytar for Dead Man's party. He originally used a Roland Axis in the 80's, but upgraded to this pretty red Alesis Vortex for this reunion performance. It's exceedingly rare to find clips of anyone online using Keytar as a bass instrument which makes Avila's choice extra special.

2:46 shows a good close up of the keytar in action. This wiki article indicates Avila as the player of the Keytar.
