jacksonguitars.net???????

[ps43203]

Alright, I need to know what the deal is with jacksonguitars.net. Is this some kind of spam site? I've replied to some of the ads listed, with my junk mail just to see what happened and never received a response. Also have searched here for info and have been unsuccessful in finding anything out about this site other than, whoever this is has bought up every Jackson domain possible, another being jacksonfanatic.com. If you type in Jackson sl1 in google and look at the images, these sites are tagged on almost all of them. WTF is going on!

[Axewielder]

I'm curious to know myself. They have a bunch of cool used guitar listings, but many of them seem to be stale. No listing date? No search feature? Very odd.

[ps43203]

These sites have been active for quite awhile too and nobody has even blurbed a fart about them. You would think a site with 2000 Jacksons and Charvels would attract some kind of attention. :think:

[BayRocker]

They are all just links to eBay listings. Perhaps he gets a cut if you visit eBay through his site??

The URL on the eBay page is different if you go to an item through his site, as opposed to going to the same item directly. He must get paid for the link traffic.

Here is the domain info for both Jacksonguitars.net and jacksonfanatic.com which seem to bo one and the same but one is registered out of PA and one out of CA.

Maybe some kind of stat counter to see how many hits for production purposes maybe? As is if you guys can't tell, I have WAAYYYY too much time on my hands Both sites were started in 09. I'm really curious now.

[ps43203]

Weird, most of these guitars are not on ebay. I've looked. You're probably right though, some kind of ebay payoff.

[ps43203]

I get it now, if they don't go to ebay they redirect to Musicians Friend. That's BS. Sorry about the long whois posts. I wasn't thinking how annoying it looks. Peace.

Brad Kelley used to own www.jacksonfanatic.com. Then it got parked for some years. And now someone has picked it up again to earn a buck.

[jackson1]

There is a lot of "front-end" crap going on at the moment. Front-ends to eBay. There's profit involved, for sure.
And why is it crap? Because people looking for guitar info or history will get these sites as hits in Google. I just hope that Google will somehow "read" these sites and dump them far back in the search results. But I have a feeling that money talks. Also at Google.

[ps43203]

No doubt, rings true more than ever theses days. Usa used to mean quality, not so much anymore. Now made in USA means, they have a nice corporate office here. Seems all good things eventually are ruined by the good ol dollar. Damn greed, I hate money. I remember Brad Kelley's site, that was a great site.
