Headphoneus Supremus
I don't know of any inexpensive modern record players that are worth a damn with 78s. The cheap ones have a 78 speed, but the needle is for LPs. You need a flip over needle with LP on one side and 78 on the other. That's what the schoolhouse phonos have.
This is my schoolhouse phono in action with a beater hundred year old record. This one is an acoustic recording, no microphones or electricity, just a horn and counterweights to drive the cutting lathe. I need to dig this phonograph out and play with it again. It's a lot of fun.
