The situation OP mentions is weird and the buyer clearly a nutter. I don’t see the problem with PayPal and posting guitars in general though. At the end of the day, you don’t post anything until the payment comes through. Your ad should stipulate the acceptable timeline for payment (their side) and postage (your side). If they don’t pay on time, you cancel and relist.
The main problem with eBay in particular is the fees and for a guitar I’d wait until they’re running a £1 selling fee promotion. Id probably try gumtree first if there’s no promotion happening and I’m in a rush.

My trading feedback - I'm a good egg
just don’t scrimp on the insurance, make sure it’s covered enough to replace if lost/damaged. Some carriers will have a cap for certain things like musical instruments.
Good luck with the sale
