Valeriano Bernal website

Hello everyone.

I found two Valeriano Bernal websites, https://www.guitarrasvalerianobernal.com/ and https://www.valerianobernalguitars.com/
First one looks like an old website and the second one is probably a new and refreshed one, though there is 0 links to new one from gmaps, bernal fb page and so on.

The question - is the second one legit?
Tried to contact both sites via email and none replied

Valeriano is no longer with us. The only taller Bernal in Algodonales is of his son Rafa. Keko Baldomero plays one of his guitars. The other luthier in Algodonales is Jero Perez. I think you can find them in Facebook.

When I do Registration data lookup using https://lookup.icann.org/ , it shows:

guitarrasvalerianobernal.com was created in 2009, hosted by Jimdo GmbH and points to Rafael Bernal Gil.

valerianobernalguitars.com was created in 2015 and points to Juan Diego Lozano Escorza, and other info is hidden.

Based on this and given Morante's info, I'd say guitarrasvalerianobernal.com is a legitimate website and the other one looks suspect. Though Juan may just be a tech chap for the Bernal family? FYI he seems to be running todoukuleles.com https://todoukeleles.com/content/4-sobre-nosotros
