against]

An extremely large jaw harp mounted on a large trash can whose lid has been cut away in the center to mimic the shape of lips. Inside the trash can is a plunger mounted by a lever to a pedal for controlling the resonant frequency of the can the same way your tongue does on a smaller jaw harp.

Or you could just play the big ass thing with your mouth and knock all your teeth out.
