That *can* cause random squeaks. But usually not on a specific note. And it certainly isn't the only possible explanation.

Ed's advice to have a teacher or advanced student try your setup is excellent. But sometimes an experienced player can compensate for small leaks or other problems, often unconsciously. If someone else has the same trouble on your setup, you've located at least part of the problem in your equipment. If not, you may still want a tech to look closely to see if a problem too small to bother a pro may be large enough to frustrate your own efforts.
