The problem is not USPS, it's Parcel Post. That's USPS's cheapest service. Priority Mail works fine. I have sent well over 1,000 parcels via Priority Mail with only one loss, and that was an apartment dweller and you know how that rolls . . .
The issue with Priority Mail and guitars is that it's way expensive compared with UPS. Once you get above a certain size, you go UPS and not USPS (unless you are a cheap bastard and select Parcel Post).
USPS does not advertise Delivery Confirmation as tracking, because it's not. You do get better info with Priority Mail than Parcel Post, but it still tends to lag reality.
Bottom line is a git should be shipped insured AND properly packed anyway . . .

I lost two packages in the last month alone using Priority Mail. The first did not have Delivery Confirmation but the second did. They were to be delivered to a UPS store to be picked by a touring client. The client didn't get either package. The post master said there was a conformation that the second had been delivered but he couldn't guarantee to where. I now use UPS for shipping.

The best scammers have all the answers and know how to scam. You actually have no idea who you are dealing with unless you have gotten lucky and have an honest seller. Handing over hundreds of dollars to any eBay deal is foolish unless you can meet the person and exchange in person. I have found eBay to be 100% for stuff like motorcycle parts (stuff that really has no value except to a broken bike owner), but really valuable items are the scammers paradise.
