Getting A sus right on 12 string

I'm having a problem getting my A sus chords to sound right on my 330-12, most likely due to the narrow width of the fretboard. I have no problem on my Danelectro 12.
Are there alternate positions I can use to get this chord together on the Rick?

Thanks for the info, but could you possibly send me chord charts, or direct me to where I could find them?

Try looking for 'chord charts' on Google..... for example, there are 23 'Asus' chords here:

As I've posted before, the greatest program I've seen for chords is Chord Wizard, out of Australia.
www.ChordWizard.com
It is very inexpensive, very easy and will give about 30 different variations on every chord.
(It does a lot more but I will end my sales pitch here.)
