add v : add one or more files to a playlist
   add list of alias : the file(s) to add

A track is not an alias.  Therefore:

         tell application "iTunes"
           set _playlist1 to playlist "music"
           set _tracks to tracks in _playlist1
           set _playlist2 to make playlist with properties {name:"TEMP"}
           set _shortlist to items 1 through 12 of _tracks
           repeat with _track in _shortlist
             set _alias to location of _track
             add _alias to _playlist2
           end repeat
         end tell
