I checked most that you listed, and Fast Audio Peak Limiter seems to be the one to me that might help in tackling the problem of outstanding peaks in the signal of my guitar. The description mentions certain aspects from that it seems it might work.

But from elsewhere I was suggested to try these:
Really Cheap Compressor (by mictester)
Bearhug FET Compressor

Do you know anything about them? Can they do a better job than the Fast Audio limiter?

I took a photo of another test and you can see from it about how much cut would be needed to tackle the problem. Above the green line, that part should be cut:

I know mictester's circuit is well-respected, as is Jon Patton's, but I couldn't tell you whether the Really Cheap Compressor or Bearhug do a better job than the Fast Audio Limiter.

They're small simple circuits, though, so it wouldn't be too much trouble to try all three.
