Pladask Fabrikat
New predirt reverb(probably a Holy Grail) DONE. 2 RV-3s. Non of them pre-dirt though, but as only verbs on the board(s).
Sampler
Behringer Model D-clone
Studio gear(mics, preamps, outboard gear)
Reel-to-reel
Get a backup baritone. Prolly a Squier. Sort of DONE, converting the telemaster to a baritone

Fix/DIY:
Change the nut on the telemaster. CHANGED THE NECK INSTEAD.
Add Bigsby to telemaster DONE
Mod the Traynor TS-25 so I can hook it up to my big cabs. DONE
Maybe get a Mastery-trem and bridge for the Puresalem Reverberation.
Upgrade my lapsteel with a Deusenberg Multi bender. DONE

Musical stuff:
Get better at recording and mixing.
Record and release another solo album
Record and release an album with my new duo, Old Believers.
Finish and release the new Solstorm album(90% done now).
Play more drone/noise/experimental gigs.
Spend less time looking at gear on the interwebs and spend more time playing and making music.

Currently working on my recording skills, doing recording sessions for my friends bands.
Regarding studio gear I have bought a Heil Sound PR-40, Cubase 9.5 and a new audio interface.
Still waiting for the Fabrikat to be released.
Not sure if I need a sampler, but I'd love to play with a Octatrack. We'll see.
Not sure about the Behringer synth as well, cause now I got a couple of synths available in our studio.
One thing I need to add to my gear goals is a new bass head. Not sure if I'll go SS(like an older GK) or tube(really want a V4).

I own both a V4 and two 800rb’s, for normal bass use, GK all day. It takes dirt and pedals so well. The V4 runs out of headroom almost too quickly with bass.

1) buy a 3D printer, print custom mounts, stands, and knobs for all the things
2) move my upright piano from my parents house to my house, have it tuned, continue learning to play it properly, possibly even take lessons
3) replace battery in DX7, upload factory presets, learn to program it
4) build the random DIY things I have laying around (AllFlesh, MIDI to CV thing, Sterling Silo 20)
5) circuit bend all the random shit I have laying around (Casio MT140, Boss DS-1, Korg Monotron Delay)
6) buy a proper mixer and monitors
7) buy a new amp (probably a Fender Bassbreaker)
8) buy a Polymoon
9) buy/build a 12 string electric

Likely 2019 goals, but who knows how 2018 will actually go:
1) buy an Intellijel 104hp 4U case and finalise my euro plans
2) buy a Make Noise Shared System Plus
3) video synthesis

So it's been like 10 hours since I posted this and I already need to edit it New 2018 goal, get an Elektron Digitakt (maybe trade or sell my Drumbrute for one because I doubt I'd be using it after getting a Digitakt)

So I can only accumulate shit and my wishlist consists of:

1) Elektron Rytm mkii
2) Meris mercury 7 & polymoon
3) Elektron Analog4 mkii
4) Red panda Tensor
5) Turn on the octatrack2 and the analog heat at least once in 2018


I'd really love to learn ableton and record some ambient stuff tho

Etch more pedals.
Up my knob game.
Put some alumitones in my V.
No new pedals. Maybe upgrade from Xero standard to deluxe. Maybe a BD-2, and maybe a DS1. Otherwise nothing.
Case for my V
Keep my pedalboard unchanged all year.
Use more effects.
Play guitar more.
Record another album.
