This seems strange for a Gibson. I have had this happen with cheap guitars like Epiphones and others. I wasn't exactly sure what caused it. I think maybe it was the strings or it was a poor job from the factory at removing the grime after the frets were polished. I remember solving the issue by removing the factory strings, cleaning the fret board and replacing the strings with some good NYXL D'Addario's.
