well im a Drum & Bass enthusiast, so to me it means DUBPLATE (an unreleased acetate or tune doing the rounds) NOT RELEASED TO THE GENERAL

or

V(DUB) = VW. Like said above.................... Has nothing to do with the AMERICAN tuning outfit. although you can buy a nice plastic chrome DUB badge from halfords and glue it onto your corsa/206 etc...... for that PIMPED OUT LOOK :rolleyes:

oh dear...not sayin nothing on this...

i will say tho a dub plate is the actual piece they use to cut the vinyl, they dont last long if u use them to spin, a few times and they are done!!, u get test pressings from these, usually low numbers which are given out to test the press/sound bla bla bla....

Dub plates, nothing to do with dubbing as you know it Boney, its basically something they cut records from, vinyl, u know, for DJ's etc :cool:

It's what they used to use before vinyl was invented, it's made from the silac beetle or something similar i cant quite remember, but it doesnt last very long and was easy to break, Thats what i think i remember from watching geeky music shows all the time!!!
