[jnevi9nr]

other than jeremy by pearl jam, what other songs used a 12 string bass?

Early King's X and Cheap Trick.

Pretty sure Tom Petterson from Cheap trick uses one...i know Metal;lica used one one one song from the black album.

also check out the first song on Pearl Jam "Vs." I think its called "go". thats Jeff Ament on his 12 string.

Cheap Trick feature both 8 and 12 string basses on a fair number of songs on albums.

[Kink Rimson]

The King's X song 'I Pretend' has a very prominent 12 string bass part, with a little break in there somewhere which really shows off the tone.

[seamus bass]

Cheap Trick:

Heaven Tonight (the first song to ever use a 12 string bass)
All of the LIVE AT BUDOKAN album
