I started the year with my one and only guitar, a squire strat, which went fairly quickly, and a micro cube, which has also now gone.
In and flipped out again:
(Guitars)
Epi LP Traditional Pro ii
Tanglewood TWSCE115 Dread
Gretsch G5125 125th Anniversary
PRS SE 245 Soapbar
Schecter PT Fastback
Hohner SE35 Pro
Gibson SG Special HP
Fender Classic Player 50s strat
(Amps)

Hughes & Kettner Switchblade 50 1x12
Blackstar HT5R Head
(FX)
Boss ME80
2x Pedal train 2 (1 hard case, 1 soft case)
Boss CS3
Juansolo TSM680 ii
TC Sweet Cream
TC Model E
Digitech Space Chorus
HB Dual Looper
Beat Buddy mini
Korg pitch black
Joyo Quattro Delay
HB Power plant Jnr

Roland GAFC
TC Helicon Voicelive Play
In and still here for now:
Epiphone AJ something acoustic (camping guitar)
'17 Gibson LP Traditional T
Takemine CYP3 New Yorker
Epi '56 Gold Top
Boss Katana Head
HB 2x12 V30 Cab
Line6 Pod HD500
I'm not including home studio / recording stuff, but there's a decent chunk of that too.
In the pipeline:
Currently trying to decide on an Adam Black LP trade... Don't know yet
I've siphoned off a large chunk of money and a few parts towards a custom build by @Andyjr1515 ...but owing to unscheduled car death I've had to push that back slightly. Watch this space. The Eco-Caster is coming!
I don't think that's as horrendous as people make out. I've learned a lot about what I like in the last year, and gone through a fair few bits to get to where I am. I'm not as bad as @ellwood @DrCornelius or @mikeyrob73

A.n.Other which hasn’t been revealed yet
happy with what what I have for now, although a junior would be nice
Edit...also sold tone king falcon
Amps I settled on a lovely Marshall mini jubilee until I realised as much as I liked the Marshall sound I liked tweed too. Now have an AX8 through a stereo monitor set up and I’ve got literally every sound I’ve dreamed of :-)
Less is more.
For the workshop there have been a pillar drill, dust extractor and air cleaner, machine stands, a pipe bender, and loads of consumables.
Sold. I don’t sell things. Technically I’ve sold an MFC101, but since I haven’t delivered it, not collected the cash, it’s not really sold yet is it Rob?
Personally got slightly carried away this year... if I spent half the time practising as I do obsessing over new gear I might finally move beyond Smoke on the Water and learn a pentatonic scale position.
edited highlights that I can remember include:
Guitars
This is really has to stop. Gonna take up Hot Yoga in January as an alternative.
LPJ Kit build
Weston Thunder 1A bass (well not yet, hopefully picking it up tonight)
Out
Gibson Midtown
Epiphone Les Paul
I think 2018 will be a lot busier, I'm really wanting to try a new guitar (or old, very tempted to look for a year of birth guitar) and improve my amp and effects
My Trading Feedback | You Bring The Band
Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youThey è pop up occasionally... or the North American Guitar here in That London are the UK distributors. Not cheap: I had to shift my 1970 Tele and my ‘77 Mustang to raise the funds. Worth it, though: probably the best neck I’ve ever played, and tone more mellow than, er, a Donovan song about the colour yellow.
