Jon Foreman's Guitars

Jon has a Gretsch BST-1000 that he used to use during live performances of "This Is Your Life." He utilizes the guitar in an interesting way at the end of the song, he sings into the pickups and modulates his voice by changing the time on his delay pedal creating a scrubbing effect. (This can be seen at 4:46 in the video)
