EC 1000 koa truss rod noise?

I bought a brand new ec 1000 two weeks ago and love it, but just noticed if I pull on the neck with my left hand there is an internal mild clicking sound. I say clicking, but it's more of the sound of something coming into contact with something else, or some movement. It's very subtle and you can hardly hear it but you can feel it. It sounds and feels like it's somewhere around the neck joint area.

Is this likely to be some movement in the truss rod? The guitar stays in tune so I'm not completely distraught but it's a little disappointing in a brand new guitar. I don't ideally want to send it back as it's a bit of a headache and I don't think I could get a replacement as I think I got one of the last ones. But if this is a really bad sign I guess I'll have to return it.

Any advice appreciated.

You better return that sucker quick.
