That monitor in the corner isnt helping either, i'd move the desk to be more centred and add a blind if need be.
And something you can try easily enough: place your combo amp to the left of the RH speaker stand and to the right of the table. Well into the room and facing the diagonally opposite corner, facing slightly left of the spot the photograph was taken from. In that position the speaker is not firing at a flat wall, you may find your guitar sounds less echoey in that position. Costs nothing to try and it might work.
Parallel walls and surfaces is the nightmare situation for getting a 'good' sounding room. Anything you do to eliminate or reduce the area of such surfaces will be a good thing.

And not sure what you mean by my combo amp positioning (I play through the Marshall DSL). Do you mean it place it between the table and speaker stand?

Looks easy enough if I can source the materials, would be better to get a frame already pieced together as well.

The first panels that I built used cheap cotton fabric (which I tie-dyed) but it didn’t look neat. For the last lot I bought Cara fabric which was considerably more expensive but gave much better results.
In your room I’d be going for the desk in front of the window (middle of the wall) and I’d be putting panels across the corners, floor to ceiling.
I use this stuff to cover them, nice thick cotton twill - quick iron then staple over frame. Worked out at about £12 for enough to do 5 panels.

Finished result:-
Standup panels - just had wood slats screwed across base

Here are my DIY traps: I built frames, filled then with insulation and then covered them with hessian. They worked out at £15 each to make back in 2011. I would recommend following mrkb's advice and use a better quality fabric than I did.
