G&L in trouble...?

[Jean-Luc Pickguard]

Fender won't be using shopify, but it is likely that G&L being much smaller were using it for their webstore, and if so it may have been reverted to default settings.

That's what you get for not paying your bills?

Minimog.com is a blank landing page.

 

The URL is owned by Godaddy.

 

So we can't pull anything from that except they want to harvest email addresses.

Yep, it's just a holding page for a Shopify site. They all look like that.

Lots of big guitar companies use Shopify, including Fender. Gibson also just moved their entire online store to it. This is probably meaningless to anyone not involved in webdev, but you can see the Shopify config code right there in the Fender site's pages.

I never realised shopify was used by large corporations like FMIC with complex custom sites. I thought it was for smaller sites. Every day's a school day.

Yep, they've really upped their game in recent years. It's not just for little sites, or people who have just outgrown Etsy any more. 

 

We've been seriously considering the possibility of moving my employer's site over to it, since Salesforce Commerce Cloud is a pain in the ar$e.
