An Oscar Schmidt autoharp, the company credited for the creation of the instrument.
The autoharp is a type of zither that has been used on a few occasions throughout They Might Be Giants’ discography.
The autoharp is played by pushing down on buttons that correspond to specific chords. Each specific button presses a series of bars individually configured to mute all strings other than those needed for the intended chord.
