I used to have a reissue DeArmond Starfire and now I only have a very battered Epi Rivoli reissue. The sound of both aren't that different. The Rivoli has a much thinner neck and in my case one pick up.
I bought my blonde Rivoli very cheap. It had a neck repair and a Jazz-pick up underneath the chrome cover. At this moment I'm working on it, but that means I'm watching and a friend does most of the work;) It gets a Darkstar at the neck and a Duesenberg bass pick up at the bridge site. I want it at appr. the same position as the mini humbucker on the SG reissue bass. We're thinking about the controls. Maybe 2x Volume and a 3-way switch or volume, balance.
Because of the black/chrome DS and the black/chrome Duesenberg it's going to look a bit like this, stylewise:
