There's a love and a distinction that comes with Builder's Edition models, case in point, the Taylor Builder's Edition 814ce. The true crème de la crème of Taylor builds, Builder's Edition models signify Taylor Guitars at their most extravagant – and this model is no different. Coming together with some of what the best Taylor has to offer, this is truly an acoustic guitar to celebrate.

Homing in on what makes Taylor acoustic guitars so impressive, this Builder's Edition combines fine tonewoods with aesthetic and ergonomic design for a totally standout design. This Builder's Edition establishes itself with Taylor's flagship guitar shape, the Grand Auditorium. The classic shape in a single-cutaway form slips easily under the arm for up-close-and-personal playing with great comfort.

The Grand Auditorium body in question comes together with a classic tonewood combination with distinction. An Adirondack spruce top takes center stage on this Builder's Edition with buckets of harmonic complexity, warmth, and headroom. This distinguished take on a classic top wood makes for an excellent platform for its companion, a Honduran rosewood back and sides, to join in the equation. The next-level tonal character of the Honduran-origin tonewood makes it a wonderful element to accompany the Adirondack spruce. The Grand Auditorium body is fitted with chamfered body edges, a beveled armrest and matching cutaway and Curve Wing bridge.

Extending from this 814ce's body comes a classic Taylor Neo-Tropical mahogany neck in a Taylor Standard Carve profile. This neck, slid easily into hand, inspires lengthy playing sessions across the full range of registers. A West African Crelicam ebony fingerboard joins in on this experience to offer up quick and precise fretting, facilitating comfortable and exciting playing. This playability is compounded by a number of hardware specifications that really tie the guitar together such as a TUSQ nut, West African ebony bridge pins, a Micarta saddle, and Gotoh 510 Antique Gold tuning machines.

Topping of this Builder's Edition is a couple of features to really make it all shine. For one, this 814ce is fitted with Taylor's V-Class Bracing pattern that ensures strong projection, balance, stability, and concision across the guitar's entire tonal palette. This sound is then harnessed through Taylor's onboard Expression System 2 electronics system that translates its sweet sounds to the stage. Taking to the stage has never been easier with these electronics and is only made more comfortable with this Taylor's included Deluxe hardshell brown case that keeps it safe from wear and tear.

Encapsulating so much of what makes Taylor acoustic guitars so thrilling, this Builder's Edition model is an exceptional piece for any and every acoustic guitar fan to pick up and create with.

Love my Yamahas
Set name: 5.1 Receiver
RX 385 replaces my much-loved 10 year old RX 375, which I inadvertently fried while experimenting. The 385 has some newer features, including bluetooth. The old model and this both use the handy YPAO function to tune the audio speakers' depth of field to the listening environment. It's a broadcast mic that you just plug into the front of the receiver for a few seconds to determine each speakers' distance from viewer. Kind of a sonic echo measurement of seating to speaker. It's a foolproof, remarkably clever, timesaving gizmo. The YPAO mic is absolutely included with this unit, looks like a little plastic cone. Also important to me, Yamaha has replaced the old spring clips for rear/side speakers, which are now the better screw and cap posts, as they have always been for the two front speakers. I recommend rocketfish HDMI 4k/8k cables to connect this receiver to your tv and to whatever other components you want, such as a bluray. Sound quality is excellent if your speakers are good. (I like KEFs.) Of course you may prefer wireless speakers, but I'm already committed to wired ones. I used rocktfish banana plugs to connect my speaker wires to the RX 385 receiver's speaker posts. Neat and clean. With a choice of 2 front, 2 rear, 1 center speaker, plus one coaxial plug in for a subwoofer, your movies and programs are going to sound far more detailed and staged than you'd get from the tv or a sound bar. It's a more immersive and compelling experience. (I use only 2 fronts and 2 rears and don't feel I'm missing anything.) Yamaha receivers and other components are my favorites: relatively inexpensive, well designed, solidly built, and not fussy to install. If you find yourself in a pickle there are a couple of helpful youtube videos. I find with the RX385 again that Yamaha does not disappoint me.

real time and energy saver, as well as $
Size: 16AWG Wiring Harness-2 Leads
If you have a set of LED lights that didn't come with a harness , you can't beat this for the price. By the time you figure in the cost of the parts ( wire, switch, crimps/connectors, not to mention a relay if you are using one) to hardwire a set of lights, let alone the time to assemble, this set up is cheaper by far. harness length is ample, you get a pair of pigtails with connectors for a pair of lights, the relay, switch, fuse block and fuse, and ring terminals for power all assembled for what a switch and some wire would cost. Made everything quick, cheap, and easy.

Great wiring harness for light installations.
Size: 16AWG Wiring Harness-2 Leads, Size: 16AWG Wiring Harness-2 Leads
This is a great wiring harness for LED lights. These come in one or two leads application. All that means is that they come ready for one or two lights, depending on your installation. The plug in connectors for each light comes with the set so that is a plus. I’ve attached a picture of the plug/connector for the lights so you can take a look at them. Although the relay is an “overkill” for low wattage LEDs, it’s OK to have it just in case you decide to change your lights for larger ones or halogens, in the future. In my case I will be using this harness in my motorcycle. It is very long for my need, which is great for cars, but too long for motorcycles since you have to remember that room/space is scarce in motorcycles. I ended up cutting the wires to my desired length and using heat shrink butt connectors and “glued” heat shrink covers for waterproofing the connection points. All in all these are great quality and I am very happy with them.
