Thanks to all of you for commenting. If I understand the SN#'s correctly this one was built in September 2013, so it has been around somewhere - I just have never seen it at this GC before and they were selling it as new. The sticker from the pick guard which is usually there telling what strings are on it was gone. There is some discoloration on the strings which do not feel like Elixirs to me but definitely don't sound dead yet. Not sure what to make of all that, but it sounds great to me. I haven't had much time to devote to it yet, but intend to spend some quality time with it over the next few days.
