DANG. I would have taken one look at that PCB and ran away.

Heck I may have to replace the push push pot on mine, and even that is scary.

It's actually not all that hard. The volume pot comes with the little flex board attached, so you just have to worry about the tabs attaching it to the solder pads on the board. Soldering off the old one is much harder than soldering on the new one.

If your Luke is from 2012, it has the old electronics layout. Which means, no PCB mounted pots.
My soldering skills are somewhere between inept and beginner, after trying for years. The electronics in mine have the boost on the tone pot, not the volume. I think. I did look inside and I recall seeing a small PCB attached to the switch part.

I could be wrong though.
