How much is "inexpensive"?  I think the Shure M78S is a safe bet in a 
clunker and will get the job done.  If you want to step it up a notch, 
visit http://www.kabusa.com/frameset.htm?/index.htm and scroll down to 
*78 RPM PHONO CARTRIDGES. *Check out the custom series from Expert 
Stylus Company in England.
