The Lenco GL75 looks like about one and-a-half cuts higher than the
bottom of the barrel. You don't want to try any cartridge that is too
sensitive or has too low of a tracking force in it. The Shure in
particular looks like it might be robust enough for the arm.

FWIW I used an M75ED, and then the V15/III for some years with a GL75.
Although not ideal in some ways - e.g. LF resonance - the combination
worked quite well, and the GL75 is very useful for old '78's that are
actually some other speed like 80rmp, etc. Hence I'd say that the GL75 (in
good condition!) and a decent Shure with a '78' stylus might be a good
combination for this kind of thing.

Slainte,
