Based on some recent topics here and elsewhere, I spotted my MIJ FSR Stratocaster XII in its stand, looking lonely and forlorn, so I took it into my living room, tuned it up (it was in surprisingly good tune -- for a 12-string -- even after having sat idle for a while) and started to play some of the newer songs I've been working on. Zounds! There are definitely some tunes that a 12-string just adds a new dimension to! I've kept it out in my play area, because I have a special affinity for 12-string guitar (the first brand-new guitar I bought in 1971 was a 12-string acoustic!).
I agree that there's a "niche" for 12-string guitar, but I'm so glad I can fill it!
(My original 12-string, by the way):
