So, I have an easy solution that brings this under control pretty fast.
I will be using this all the time now on some of those old "Celtic" guitar tracks. Talk about squeaks!!
I learned this on youtube.
What you do is use a de-esser and the Izotope RX "de-clicker." I think I got that program for 9.99 or maybe free.
Anyway, it seems those squeaks are in a "male" de-esser range and I fiddled with both of these until I found settings that make it quite bearable with destroying the sound quality or naturalness.
I am all set now and I am glad someone forced me to figure this out.
