Silver Ash, also called Australian Teak or Australian Maple is Flindersia and no relation to ash, teak or maple. Queensland Maple is what I make all my guitar necks from though, love the pink and yellow streaks.

Edit, forgot to get to the point lol.  
Flindersia has a more open pore structure and can soak up plenty of oil. This is a teak ‘herb grinder’ that’s been in use for 25 years with no polishing and a Flindersia uke neck that’s had 2 coats of stain and 2 coats of oil, gets rubbed with fresh oil every 6 months or so.
