Epi serial number help

[Elwood77]

My wife got me a new Epi Les Paul from Guitar Center for christmas and I've been trying to decode the serial number for hours now with no luck.. She says it's new, but it looks slightly used(not a big deal, but she paid full price). Hopefully you guys could help. Thanks
