14x6" snare 12x9" tom 13x9" tom 16x16" floor tom 18x16" floor tom 22x18" bass drum “I’ve been with Pearl for about twenty-five years now,” Torres says. “It’s great to be with a company that’s like a family. They’ve always made drums for me to my specs. I like to incorporate art into my motif.” For this current kit, Torres wanted to go black on black, so he and his drum tech, Joe “JD” Dorosz, special ordered nickel-plated hardware. When the shells were delivered from Japan, they were sent straight to drummer/artist Prairie Prince, who collaborated with Tico on the design. JD assembled the drums with the nickelplated hardware.

It appears that when the band recorded HAND or Have a Nice Day. Tico appears to be using Pearl pedals instead of DW. The video of proof is at 6:25 but it's only a quick look, but still.

He used this Jam block from the Crush, Bounce and Have a Nice tours.

At 1:53 he's using this cowbell on the Crush album.

If you translate this to English it says he uses Remo Coated Controlled Sound on his snare before switching to a Emperor X in 2004.

He used to use Coated Ambassadors on his toms live and he still uses them.... in the studio. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xza8ym0930

He uses these hats. Not the Rock Hi-Hats! So whoever put 2002 hi-hats on his cymbals. Delete it because this is his real hats.

Tico uses ProMark hot rods and thunder rods for the laidback tunes. Like What do You Got.
