    I'd go with the Gretsch if I were you. I love the Les Paul model and well, it looks overall nicer than the other two

    Judging by the looks , i would get the epiphone casino.
    But you should choose your guitar judging by the sound, its more important than the finish or the shape of the body.
    What kinds of music do you play?

    I mainly play rock, rock n roll and i tend to like kinda twangy sounds. I like the looks of these 3 guitars so looks aren't really an issue i'd think for me it's mainly getting a good sound i'm bothered about and i'm mainly a rhythm guitarist but i do lead aswell

    Well I'd recommend a Rickenbacker if you want a "Twangy" sound, not sure how good a copy that one is, never heard of it before.
