Got an Orange TH100, Mesa Kruse modded Stiletto, Framus Dragon, Splawn Quickrod, PRS Archon and a Rivera Jazz Suprema. I bought two Avatar cabs local, two other 2x12 cabs, a 1x12 cab, a bunch of speakers.

40 EHX EL34 , 20 Tung-Sol 6L6, 20 big bottle Mesa STR 6L6, 8 Gold Lion KT88's, preamp tubes out the ass. Sylvania and =C= rectifier tubes, 40 Russian NOS EL84's, 20 6V6 Russian NOS, plus late night eBay snags.

I swapped a lot of pickups. Upgraded all of my Floyd's with FU-Tone stuff. Upgraded bridges on a bunch of Strats and teles, tremolo blocks, tuners. Roller bridge on a Les Paul.

Got a Suhr RLIR and a Two Notes CAPTOR

Slow year for me, not really able to play much. Haven't really been very focused on gear as a result.

Nothing sold. Only things I've bought are the HM-2W and EQD Hizumitas fuzz. Technically, those are both just preordered and I haven't gotten either of them yet.
