Gong:
noun
1. a percussion instrument consisting of a metal plate that is struck with a softheaded drumstick
2. a percussion instrument consisting of a set of tuned bells that are struck with a hammer; used as an orchestral instrument

I'd say that it qualifies.

Ok, but I always think of the gong show when I hear that word.

Also:

Def Leppard - Rocket (guitar, drums, load up, stun!)

"Superstar" - The Carpenters ("Your guitar/it sounds so sweet and clear")

Martin Mull did a parody of "Duelin' Banjos" called "Duelin' Tubas". I think that was in the early '80s, if I'm not mistaken.
