From the list you posted I would say all are worthy. It really comes down to what you want to spend, if one is a better deal than the others that would be the one to buy.

Do you have a chance to go and play them?  That's always the best advice as each guitar even the same model and year is slightly different.   If not then as mentioned, by the one you think looks the coolest  🙂

You need to play them. Looking good and playing good are two different things. I had a LP that was hard to play, resulting in much frustration. Sold it and bought a LP Standard HP-II. Wow what a difference, I can't put this guitar down, best I've ever owned!

Hi) I got it a Tribute 2018 new at the end, it's very nice but the bridge is a little bit high I think. 

 

Fine. See about lowering the bridge and setting the guitar up. Do you do this?

There are plenty of online videos to show how. Otherwise, get a tech/luthier to do it for you.

 

I've just seen pictures of your guitar on your other thread. Smart looking Goldtop!
