Got this G6241FT for my G5420 and it is awesome! Not sure how much better the deluxe version could be. This case is well constructed and my Gretsch fits perfect, no gaps, no more shake up and down! The latches don't appear to be too heavy duty, but they certainly do the job right. The empty spaces and small storage area allows room for picks, capo, slide, cleaning rag, and other small accessories. The only pain is that the fit is so perfect I would like a little more space to get things done. Anyway, it is lightweight, yet durable. It's made of wood, has a Tolex exterior and a flat top. I like the fact that the case is flat instead of arched like the deluxe version, it allows for better storage and doesn't collide with the other guitar cases. Great case, great design, looks pretty slick!
Overall, fantastic case for the price.
