Best of luck Scott with the recovery. It is very hard to be on the sideline
when you have been busy and active. As they say, "this too will pass".

Good luck Scott!

A speedy recovery, Scott.

One thing I tried doing while my hand was immobilized was using Pianostyle Mode with just the one hand (my RH). Full kbd chord recognition, etc., then just chord where needed, and solo over it. It's a really good exercise to train your hand(s) to solo with only one or two notes tops, so you don't trigger another chord accidentally.

Another trick is to set the sound up so that it ignores the first 20-30 velocity levels.... Whatever your arranger needs in order to allow you to solo but play softly on the chord part and it ignores it. Now you can do the same trick with non-comping sounds like sax etc..

Get well soon...

Hope you recover completely! I had surgery on my index finger a week or so ago. Still have a temporary brace I wear until I begin playing. In my case, it is years of bar fighting (not proud of that), simply wearing out the joint from improper fingering and some damage from being cut several years ago.

Am preparing for not being able to ever play bass, guitar or left-handed "walking" bass on my B-3.

You're in our prayers as well, Russ, for a full and rapid recovery ...

Wishes for a speed recovery
