I'm glad mine has 9s, then.

could be a bad neck, the one that i picked up is holding it's own i use 12 - 54's on it...
and did a very similar mod to your own.. http://www.shortscale.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=43945
though i just realized i don't have a completed picture of it up yet...
or the final write up, so i'll have to snake it from my jam space this week and do both of those things.

I THINK YOUR NECK WAS INJECTED WITH PUSSY JUICE OR SOME SORT OF OTHER ILL SHIT.


THAT SHIT SHOULD NOT HAPPEN

I had a Bullet Special Strat neck that did the same thing, you could dive notes just by pushing the back of the neck with little pressure. I wouldn't expect it to happen on a £200+ Squier though.

I'm going with Rob's theory and it was injected with pussy juice.
