Dave Davies has called out his brother Ray Davies, claiming that he has perpetuated a lie about the signature guitar sound about the Kinks classic "You Really Got Me."

Both of the brothers have laid claim to creating the fuzzy amp sound by cutting into the speaker cone, but Dave says only his side of the story holds any truth.

He spoke out on the myth in a post to Facebook writing, "My brother is lying."

"I don't know why he does this, but it was my Elpico amp that I bought, and out of frustration I cut the speaker cone up with a razor blade, and I was so shocked and surprised and excited that it worked that I demonstrated the sound to Ray and Kinks bassist Pete Quaife . . .

Ray liked the sound, and he had written a riff on the piano which formed the basis of the song 'You Really Got Me,' and I played the riff on my guitar with MY new sound. I ALONE CREATED THIS SOUND."

A twist on the story has circulated that Ray created the sound by sticking the amp with a knitting needle.
