Default 12 String Archtop

FYI Martin experimented with the idea in the early-1930's,\ using a C-2 as a basic platform, but there seems to be little interest then or now for a 12-string instrument with prominent midrange and short sustain, both of these the total opposite for why most people buy 12's in the first place...
