PRS MT15 Does exactly what I tried to make my Triple Rectifier do. The clean channel is one of the best I've played.

Ibanez RGDIM6FM Traded for it, didn't know what to expect, never had a multi scale or Fishmans. It's awesome.

Schecter Demon 7 My first 7 string, I put Fishmans in it. Now I get to learn how to play guitar all over again while writing some huge riffs.

Biyang Metal End Sounds great with a few mods.
 
Usa jackson dinky. Guitar just kills.

ADA MP1 and Marshall 8100. Got em both for dirt cheap (all I can afford at the moment) and they sound great!
 
Favorite acquisition was the Jackson Jack Butler. Most used acquisition is the FM3.

Favorite amp. Mesa Mark IV. When I first powered it up I hated it. Then I learned how go dial it in. Its something I've always wanted and was always nervous about getting. I was kicking myself for waiting so long. I may end up being buried with this amp.

Favorite pedal Deadweald Audio Duality.. I actually sold my VFE standout and Maxon od after getting it. I have a dx version on the way next week which has a 3rd boost option that is a mix of the blue and green channels plus a built in noise gate. Its usually my nature to be a hater for my friend's business ventures. Somehow this pedal just suits me perfectly.

Guitars... I only got 2 this year. A Solar A1.6D and a Jackson pro series Soloist. Both are fantastic.

The Ceriatone molecular definitely deserves an honorable mention as does the monomyth 2204 that has made the rounds through a few members here. however the Leviathan I just got is giving me the flexibility and tones that I've been chasing and is quickly becoming my go to amp. I still need to wrap my head around all the options.

Those 3 things. Dual Dark is the tone in my head when I think of doom and sludge....the ESP gets me there and the Suhr does exactly what is says it does. Works perfectly for my needs.

Honorable mention goes to an Ibanez Prestige RGA121, and the EQD Plumes.
 
I bought 4 amps and 3 guitars among other stuff this year, but this 1993 SG-1 that I picked up a couple weeks ago is my favorite.

I think probably my Splawn Supersport and my Splawn Quickrod for amps, and my USA So-cal and MIJ San Dimas for guitars.

Edit:

a surprise but my Budda Superdrive 18 is fucking fantastic
 
Fractal FM3. Never thought a day would come when I'd actually be excited about a modeler for anything other than quickly recording some tracks to reamp later.
Me too it's going to be a while before I buy a tube amp again
 
Luxxtone Choppa t and a Bogner. Can’t choose a favorite.

I only bought one thing this year, a 3 Monkeys Zé. It is great, but it´s also the first time in twenty years I haven´t bought at least a couple of guitars and an amp or two as well so the competition is less fierce than usual.
