The most obvious difference is the later pick guard has a more pronounced protrusion at the fretboard end. Moving outward, the next difference is in the pick guard. I’ve found a couple of very early FG-110’s with the common label. It’s possible this early label was only used on the FG-150 & FG-180. The change to the common label happened in June/July 1967. The lines above and below are also thicker. Initially “YAMAHA GUITAR” is shorter and bolder. The first difference is in the label itself. It may not be obvious that there were subtle changes made between about 6 months and nearly 3 years after the Red label FG’s became available in the beginning of 1967. Yamaha FG’s have gone thru many changes since their introduction in 1966.
