I had thought that was kind of the point of a 12-string guitar – that it can evoke a rich tone like two players playing together. I know it was recorded on acoustic instuments … but something like Kansas’ “Dust in the Wind” – recorded in the studio with two players on six-strings, but can sound great on a single 12-string.
A good electric example is the opening of Bon Jovi’s “Dead or Alive”.
