The Grail is a digital reverb with 3modes: Spring; Hall and "Flerb", which adds a subtle flanging to the reverb.
The Grail can't be a Wet Reverb any more than a Ford can be a Camaro: Wet is a Neunaber brand.
One handy thing about the Grail: if you set the mode switch to Spring and adjust the knob for a nice modest reverb for uptempo songs, it goes to a nice fat wash tasteful for slow ballads just by switching to Hall.
Flerb I only used for 80s-style stuff where I wanted a chorusy shimmer. The odd thing was that the flanging only became evident on the tail. I liked it
As to your Wet question, I bet Brian designed his own.

| One more thing seems maybe the tone bar is killing the tone. when I put the tone bar on the string the sound just goes flat sounds great without it and that's on new strings. |

How much bar pressure do you put in with your right hand? You need a good bit, but too much is hard on your wrist. I apply just enough for tone.
