I'm looking to upgrade the LG monitor that I'm currently using. I've had it less than two years and it's already getting image burn in and it doesn't offer much for color adjustment and since I do my own printing I'd like a monitor that has a lot more adjustability than the LG.

I use a BenQ PD3200U 32" 16:9 4K IPS Monitor and the color matches my printer real nice

What model LG do you have?
What tool do you use to profile it?
How often do you profile?
What is your budget?

Are you aware of the difference between factory calibration and using an Xrite or Datacolor color profiling tool to fine tune the color?
Are you aware that the colors will drift, and the display's backlight will age over time, and that for consistent color you need to profile your display at least once a month?

How about a wide gamut?

I use a BenQ SW240 monitor with hardware calibration using a SpyderX colorimeter, and am very happy with this combination.

If I were to be in the market for a monitor today, my first, and probably only, choice would be an Eizo ColorEdge CG319X 31.1" Wide Screen Hardware Calibration IPS LED 4K Monitor, 4096x2160 monitor.

It's a very nice one but expensive. It's wider than 16:9 which I do not like. For photo editing I don't like the wide screen because very few if any of my images is wide. I think it can be rotated but still a wide screen in vertical orientation is very good. It would be fine if all of my images are in landscape orientation but of course they are not.

Check out Benq Photo monitors. https://www.benq.com/en-us/monitor/photographer.html

I use the Benq SW2700PT. It is a reasonably priced 27" model at $599.00. I highly recommend it. Benq has models geared for specific applications. They make monitors for gaming, video applications, design, photography, etc. The SW2700PT is one of their photo editing monitors. If you are going to use the monitor for photo processing, you should buy a monitor that is geared for that type usage. Link for the SW2700PT is below.

Good luck.

The op may not need a new display, except for the burn in issue. I hesitate to recommend anything without understanding what he has, what he is looking to address, and what his budget is. For now, he's a ghost.

I use a BenQ PD3200U 32" 16:9 4K IPS Monitor. It's great, never had any color matching issues. I also use x-rite color munki

You beat me to it! BenQ makes great monitors for photography and the graphic arts. Here's another one I recommend, specifically for anyone who needs very accurate color matching:

The BenQ SW270C Photographer 27" 16:9 HDR IPS Monitor from BenQ has been built for those who require color accuracy, with support for 100% of the sRGB and Rec. 709 color gamuts, 99% of the Adobe RGB color gamut, 97% of the DCI-P3 and Display P3 color gamuts, and HDR10. Driven by BenQ's AQCOLOR technology and a resolution of 2560 x 1440 with a 60 Hz refresh rate, the SW270C helps deliver improved accuracy and productivity using 10-bit support for 1.07 billion colors, a 16-bit look up table (LUT) that improves RGB color blending, and Delta E≤2 in Adobe RGB and sRGB color spaces for a more representative view of the original image.

It costs about $800, but if you work with color for a living, this is a great reference and color correction monitor. If you ever connect a monitor like this and put it next to a $129 generic desktop PC monitor, then calibrate them both with a hardware/software kit from Datacolor or X-Rite, you'll understand why all those features can be important (unless you're color blind or just rationalize away the difference).

sRGB = lowest common denominator good color
Rec. 709 = HDTV standard color
Adobe RGB = Graphic arts photo editors' preferred standard
P3 color = Apple's latest devices' standard color gamut
HDR10 = An advanced color standard for high dynamic range television
10-bit support = finer color gradation and better subtlety... also better accuracy
16-bit LUT = even better control over color accuracy of profiles
Delta E≤2 in Adobe RGB and sRGB = VERY tight accuracy in those common photography color gamuts
