GE carts seem to be a favorite though I have never seen one in the wild.

The older 78 RPM only Zenith Cobras were really good quality phonos...I have a table top model and it has very good tone and seems to pick up less surface noise off of worn records. Wurlitzer even used the cobra pickups in their 1100 and other models of jukebox.
Some of the 4 speed changers did have a funky "compromise" stylus that was in-between the standard 78 and 33 tip sizes.
