If you actually meant dub, use a solid and heavy bass for resonance, flatwound strings (also don't change those ever), palm mute and pluck with your index and thumb, neck position. Kill the treble, almost kill the mids, compress. Also play around the root, 3rd and major.

This. If you want to synthesise it, you won't create a completely authentic bass, but low triangle or sine waves work v. well, with a v. short attack time to imitate that plucked sound.

*hoping you didn't mean dubstep*

I hate it when people confuse that.
