Cork Oak: Trunk Chop?

I am eyeing a nice 5 gallon cork oak on sale at a local nursery.

I am wondering what the odds are of new buds if I trunk chop it, as is often done for zelkovas to create broom style.

There are a few new branches almost as low as I'd like already in place. If necessary, I can save these and use them instead of chopping in a place below all existing branches.
Any advice appreciated.
Thanks.
Steve
