Matt Nicholls

In the MusicRadar interview by Rich Chamberlain, Matt Nicholls of Bring Me The Horizon discusses using Vic Firth 2B drumsticks, noting their durability and suitability for his powerful playing style.

At 6:11 in the "BRING ME THE HORIZON - Mat Nicholls Walkthrough" video by soundattak on YouTube, Matt Nicholls confirms, "My sticks are Vic Firth. They're the Rock stick. I used to use 2Bs for ages and I tried these and I tried the Metal sticks and then we settled on these Rock sticks. The tips are a bit better for less damage on the heads. I found with the 2Bs with the acorn head, I was denting them a bit more, do you know what I mean? But with these, it's good for rimshots too cuz I'm getting more central with my stick. Usually you know, I'm a bit short with the 2Bs so, the extra length helps me get a bit more central and that. But yeah, the Vic Firth Rock sticks." This indicates that Matt Nicholls uses Vic Firth American Classic Rock Wood Tip Drumsticks.
