He also plays Bartender with a twelve string. And you could actually play Grey Street on a 6 string guitar as well.

yeah you could pretty much play anything on a 6 that was on a 12, just not as full of a sound

Dave has played Recently on a 12 string on some recordings with Tim. Adds a fuller sound.

He's played crash on a twelve as well, but I would not recommend trying it.

I recently invested the 30 bucks for a set of elixers for my 12 and I think they are well worth it. They seem so much easier on the fingers.
