Anyone know of a bassist who plays 12 string bass?(Besides Tom Peterson) I want to hear how it should be played, but can't find many recordings aside from Cheap Trick.

Like Raymond says Trey Gunn from King Crimson plays a twelve string but its a warr touch guitar. Similar to a stick.

I know John Paul jones plays a more standard twelve. and incidentally I saw him open up for Crimson a couple of years ago.
