Electric octave twelve string guitar?
Eastwood
Hammertone
"Strung E to e and tuned an octave up, think of it as a 12 string guitar with a capo at the 12th fret."

The Hammertone is a copy of a 1960s Vox Mandoguitar, like this one.

Daniel Lanois played one of these on U2's The Joshua Tree.

It is an octave 12-string guitar—tuned one octave above a standard 12-string.
Here's a guy playing a Ry Cooder tune on one:
