I have a Squire Tele Affinity and I'm having trouble keeping the B string staying in tune. After I tune the guitar it sounds fine for about 10 minutes and that danged B string always falls flat. Does anyone else have this problem?

The guy I bought it from had just put on a new set of Ernie Balls and it's been fine until the last few days. Frustrating as hell.

your string probably unstrung at the top that will couse the string to contantly stretch and go out of tune

First, how old are the strings? Because depending on how old they are, that could be the reason for the issues. If you are certain it is not the strings, then you need to look into binding at the nut or string tree, possibly a loose tuner, or a loose saddle at the bridge.
