    I don't know but I think I saw it in a Dr. Seuss book.

    Its a chordaphone of the percussion family.

    (... and yes, I do think I too, saw it in a Dr. Seuss book, which I was reading in the waiting room at the dentist's - never did find out how that one ended.)

    Edit Add:

    Very important - Can I get it in White or colors other than Black lacquer or natural wood?

    Even more than very important: Can I teach myself to play this instrument and play it well?

    Best regards.
