A friend who used to own and love a pair of Guarneri Homages upgraded to Guarneri Mementos. I haven't heard his GMs but this friend is one of the few local audiophiles whose ears I can trust and he says the GMs sound more extended in the freq extrems, smoother, more refined, are more detailed, are more dynamic and have a lot more bass and punch than the GH. I believe him. I haven't heard his setup but I am very familiar with the Strads and since the GM shares roughly the same tweeter and a similar but larger Audiotechnology midwoofer, I would expect rougly similar if somewhat downscaled improvements. Otoh ... I think the GH probably sounds richer/warmer from top to bottom and no doubt some GH fans would miss that ...
