The instrument used on The Beach Boys on such recordings as "I Just Wasn't Made for These Times", "Good Vibrations", and Wild Honey", was custom-made by trombonist Paul Tanner and Bob Whitsell, and was called the Tannerin.
Whereas the original theremin was controlled remotely by the user, the electro-theremin was able to be played with a series of knobs at the side of the machine.

What is the musical instrument known as an electro-theremin?
The electro-theremin is also called a tannerin. Probably the best-known example of electro-theremin music is on the Beach Boys song Good Vibrations.
Who played the theremin in Good Vibrations?
None of the Beach Boys played the theremin in Good Vibrations. There was no actual theremin used in "Good Vibrations." Instead, the song featured an electronic instrument that is played by sliding a little pointer back and forth across a narrow wooden enclosure; this is much easier to play than the theremin, which is played "in the air" without actually touching the instrument. On the recording, this theremin-like instrument was played by Paul Tanner, who also played a part in its invention. He also played it on the Beach Boys' "Wild Honey" and "I Just Wasn't Made For These Times". In concert, before the Beach Boys brought backing musicians on tour with them, Mike Love played it. In later years, the job fell to one of their sidemen.
