Gibson L-00 strings

Wondering if anybody knows what strings Gibson ships their L-00 Standard guitars with? I played one today at guitar center, it sounded much better than my 2020 and I suspect it was the strings.

As far as I’m aware, they’re Gibson Masterbuilt PB 12-53. I’ve had a few Gibs and they all sounded great with those strings.

I cannot say, but I did put D'Addario EXP-16 on my L-OO True Vintage.

The other factor, is how old are the strings on those you mention...

For example, Taylor put coated Elixir with the purpose that the sound
quality will last quite long, not altered by naked strings faster decay.
