Integrate $1/(x_1x_2...x_n)^k$ for $1\le x_i\le a$, where product of coordinates satisfies $b \le x_1\cdots x_n \le c$

I need to integrate $$ \iiint_1^a \frac{1}{(x_1x_2\cdots x_n)^k} * \begin{cases} 1 & b \le x_1\cdots x_n\le c \\ 0 & \text{otherwise}. \end{cases} $$ We have $a>1$ and $c>b>1$; furthermore $k\in\mathbb R$, but feel free to restrict it to either larger than $0$ or smaller than $0$ if that's easier; the case $k=0$ would also be of independent interest.

While this might look like homework, it's come up in a research context; I sincerely hope it is as easy as homework for someone, I've dug through various papers, but it seems tough. So I'm happy for any pointers!!

Thanks!

PS: I'm happy to give more context, but I'm not sure it'll add much.
