Maybe a rockabilly doghouse bass played slapping style?Leo wrote: Sat Jun 29, 2019 8:47 amCan't. My right arm doesn't behave very well. I have tried, but unless it's all hammer notes by my left hand, it doesn't work. But, I'm only 62, I have plenty of time to keep trying...You may have to start all over and relearn if so inclined. Just like people that have to learn how to walks again after an injury. That would probably be a good exercise of your brain and help your recovery too.

Kinda hard to slap the strings when you're right arm is wandering around somewhere...
It was many years before I could hold my right arm out straight and hold it somewhat still.

There are exceptions to every rule...

Re: Do you play a musical instrument, if so: which?
I developed impingement in my shoulders about year ago, so I can sorta relate. I can hold my arms out in front of me and their fine, but if I try to hold them out to the sides it pretty painful. Not that it has anything to do with playing an instrument
If I could play a guitar as well as I appreciate listening to them then I would be guitar god like this guy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nusv6nLWxU . Alas, I can still listen, and enjoy.
