@NotImune they're completely different things. the resomax is designed to give sustain and bring out harmonic content where as the string savers aren't meant to do either on of those things at all. they're supposed to make it so the string hits the break angle of the bridge a little less severely.
I actually wonder if I would gain the same effect buy only exchanging the saddles of my TonePros Bridge with the Graph Tech String Saver ones. What do you think?
In the need to replace the nut on my guitar I have found that there are other things to consider, like the saddles on the bridge. I've been looking into Graph Tech since their product is synthetic and it makes sense that this kind of material would not have the problem of dead spots like bone would. I was concerned that the loss of the 2Khz bite of the metal saddles. After seeing this comparison I have no more worries. IMO the Resomax sounds clearer, warmer and full of tone. Resomax all the way
Think you using resomax NV2. Am wrong? If was the resomax NV1 (all metal sadles) it would be more bright. The NV2 provides string safe and segure tunnig, but looses some treble.
I can't imagine anyone preferring the Gotoh. I found the first video painful. I honestly thought it was the small solid state amp. Turns out that it was the bridge causing that brash highs. Resomax FTW. That being said, I'm leaving the ABR-1 on my guitar.
Graphtech makes 3 different bridges, which one did you install? They have the NVS, NV1 and the NV2. The Resomax bridge sounds much smoother in my opinion.

Gotoh or graphtech?

If you use the same pickups in both you will find the sound very difficult to distinguish.
