I haven't yet built with oak, but I have two big boards of QS curly white oak in my stash - enough to make several guitars out of. With the curl AND the rays, it is really eye-popping stuff. I won't get around to using it for a while, but I really look forward to it.

I've built 2. Tone wise, oak need not apologies. It sounds good.
Looks - I don't think it needs to ask for forgiveness for that either. Here are a few shots of the twins.
