Thanks for the input. l'll post progress pictures of my guitar when it progresses a little more. This is my first original concept guitar. My only prior experience is an oak body strat copy and an abandoned flying V.

This is my first post here. I use oak for my guitar bodies because it's readily available to me and I like the sustain I get out of it. I have the neck off of a Squier '51 that I was going to use on my latest but I'm not really happy with it and I want to take a stab at building my own. Is oak stable enough to make a neck out of? I know Brian May used it for his finger board on the Red Special but I haven't found any cases of it as a neck wood. I imagine it would be similar to a Mahogony neck but I wanted to get an expert opinion before I give it a go. ~Kevin
