I first heard that term at a Best Buy; the year was 1998! I don't shop there anymore, due to customer service issues. Not sure if the term applies to high-end acoustic guitars, but let's see how the OP replies.
Another term that some guitar shop owners use is New Old Stock (NOS). It has a certain meaning with respect to old car parts, but with guitars it usually means it's been hanging there, on the wall, played occasionally and not yet purchased 2-3 years later.

Is this guitar brand new, are you the authorized dealer, or did you buy it from the dealer? If so, how long have you purchased it for?
