The Fiddle Bow(plus mouth bow).
By putting sufficient tension on the bow-string the Apache fiddle bow also doubles as a mouth bow as made famous by Buffy Sainte Marie. It has a heavier beat than a violin string. Take one of the side shoots from the Agave stalk, string it with shoe-string type cord and pull it tight. You'll need to put rosin or pine-resin on the string.
