That's called a "slit log" drum.

<< Jon et all,

About ten years ago I band I played in did some shows with a band called 
Caterwaul. Their drummer was really good. On his kit he included  one of 
those african instruments (and forgive me, I don't know what its called) 
that consists of a wooden bx with the topcut into differently porportioned 
wooden tines (used to see them at "Natural Wonders" type stores) anyway, 
during his solo(s) while playing his rhythms he would maintain a melody on 
this instrument. Came off as a very cool effect. I realize the consists of 
the "something new" that you were trying to avoid, but I thought it worth 
sharing all the same.
