yet another challenge for our resident restoration experts. X330 MPC that needs a complete MPC wire job as someone has messed it up.

I'd say it could be done - a fair amount of effort but no structural issues to deal with.

Too bad he sanded down the back of the neck, why do people do that? My friend did it to a LP deluxe, i know alot of guitarists like the feel of raw wood and no finish on the back but it looks so awful especially on a set neck.

Go mcbrat! Too bad there are no indications of what, if any, wiring is left in the mpc cavity. Might be worth a shout out to the seller. Otherwise, it looks to be pretty straitforward.
