2B Drum Sticks

As every experienced drummer knows, the size and application of a drum stick is represented by a number and letter (2B, 5B, 7A, etc). The smaller the number is, the bigger the stick's tip circumference - so in the case of size 2B drum sticks, they have a larger diameter than say, a 7A stick. As for its letter, "B" stands for "band", which is the original application that these sticks were designed for. Today, size 2B drum sticks are used for a wide range of musical genres and the most respected drum stick manufacturers offer their own high-quality pairs, including Vic Firth, Promark and Vater.

As you browse this selection of size 2B drum sticks, you'll come across a fair share of best sellers and top-rated options (including from the respected brands mentioned above). For example, check out the Vic Firth 6-Pair American Classic Hickory Drumsticks. Featuring a bold design and deeply back-cut tips, these sticks produce a very intense sound when playing cymbals and their durability is nothing short of amazing. Another popular seller is the Promark 3-Pair Japanese White Oak drum sticks. This specific species of oak is a harder wood compared to hickory. They're made with Promark's exclusive Millennium II manufacturing process and each stick is carefully hand-finished and inspected.

Size 2B drum sticks are even designed in collaboration with famous drummers in the industry. Need a suggestion? Turn your attention to the Zildjian Tré Cool Artist Series Signature drum sticks. When Tré joined Green Day way back in 1990, his hard-hitting style took the band's sound to even greater heights, which was obvious on the band's sophomore LP, "Kerplunk". So as you can imagine, his signature Zildjian sticks deliver maximum sound projection to match his powerful punk rock style.

And don't think for a second that your choices end there. There are also signature models from the likes of Eric Singer, and Ahead, which even offers a pair that combines the lightweight feel of jazz sticks with the sturdy resilience of heavy metal sticks. When you get right down to it, size 2B drum sticks are ideal for anyone who wants their performance to stand out and you don't need to look any further than this catalog for a huge assortment of options.
