I have a CC24 with a koa top (laminated) but it doesn't have the initials FKOA on the label, just CC24 Made in China. Are they the same model with different labels or, if not, how are they different? Mine also has the OP-4BT preamp/tuner. I bought it used and don't remember the year it was supposed to have been made.

Location: Keepin' It Weird in Portland, OR		Look at the edge of the Sound Hole to see if it is Solid Koa, or laminate.
If the wood grain continues at the sound hole hole, it is solid.

As to the difference between Koa and FKOA (Figured Koa), I don't know.
I have owned two different CK047 Koa-topped guitars.
Neither of them said FKOA on the label.

It's a laminate top, not solid.
