Have you fitted the truss rod yet? There's been no mention of this essential piece of kit. And as for Oak, it's the same genus as Ash, even looks the same and since a certain Californian company have been using Ash in their guitars for over 60 years, then why not, but the best bit is it was lying round the shop for free rather than an expensive purchase. Don't use a switch, separate vols are infinitely versatile and less complicated. Good Luck
