Is "Xanadu" live the only time he uses that 12-string neck?

Geddy used the 4080/12 for Xanadu and the 4080 for A Passage to Bangkok. |

I didn't see my first Rush concert until 1982 (Signals tour) so the double necks were pretty much out of use by then. I have seen them nine times total and I don't remember ever seeing Geddy get the double neck Ric out. |
