This instrument is known by many names. Most commonly it is referred to as a Jews Harp.

This simple instrument gives you an amazing range of tones and pitches just by varying your mouth shape and degree of plucking. Many of us were first exposed to this instrument by the most famous of all Juice Harp Players, Snoopy! Snoopy even has his own signature model of Juice Harp.

 Tooth breaker, very hard to play! June 23, 2008

I had a nice jaw harp that eventually broke. Bought one of these as a desperate replacement, big mistake. I wouldn't give this to my worst enemy. The tine (the thing you move to get sound) was unbearably stiff. It was like wrestling with a set of house keys trying to get any kind of sound out of this. You are better off getting a murchunga or a vietnamese jaw harp. They are easy to play, fairly loud and a variety of sweet sounds. You won't believe the difference.
 almost didn't buy this because of the reviews... April 23, 2008

when i first got this i looked up a how-to video on youtube--for the "complete instructions inside" were only a few incomplete sentences. i saw the person playing with ease and i couldn't manage to get one sound. later i picked it up again and after an hour was playing notes. i ain't a muscian so i can't validate the high-end musical accuracy of this, but i managed to figure this out and make correct noises and differentiate them with my lips and tongue. this obviously isn't for those who want something professional, but if you want to just get into the jew harp for some pocket change, i'd say this provides a lot of fun and cool sounds if you aren't a perfectionist or take yourself too seriously as a musician.

This is complete junk, and will frustrate anyone trying to play it. I could not even hear the sound in my own ears! After I bought this paperweight, I went online and found a good one for $23 shipped.
I see that some people have given it high ratings. I suspect that they were either lucky, or that they are shills.
 Too quiet to be heard outside my own head. July 24, 2007
Aaron Wooldridge (Norfolk, VA)
It's fun to play, but after days of teaching myself to play via the Internet to the point where I could change notes, nobody was actually able to hear me play. It was only audible in my own head. Cheap construction too.
