I have an ES-335 112-string. It’s a challenge to tune (more then 2x the effort of a 6-string, IMO) but sounds just amazing when plugged in. They are definitely “their own thing” but as the OP said, a great deal of fun. That said, he’s probably having more of a challenge playing it fingerstyle than I am strumming with a pick.

One day I was in the local guitar shop, and one of the employees was behind the counter working on one. I said “tuning a 12-string?” He said “yeah, I’ll be here all afternoon.”
