Squeaky Clutch

So I just rebuilt the master cylinder and replaced the slave cylinder. I benched bled and then installed and subsequently bled again. It operates really well. However, when I'm depressing the clutch pedal, it (the master) squeaks. I'm uncertain if this is because its new and needs to wear in or if I overlooked a step to the process which otherwise seemed really straightforward. Any thoughts are welcome - even if its just, give it a few months of driving to break in.

Thanks all for the counsel.

Make sure the spring is seated as it should be. I had the same problem recently and found the spring was 1/2 turn out of the cup it sits in.
