I use this bunch:

The NR200 in particular. Very cheap, very accurate, capable of regulating down to very low pressures (2-3PSI - you'll be lucky to get 8-10 out of many others). You buy the gauge separately (they do them and are cheap too), I use them with panel mount gauges.

But you have to be reasonably confident to mess with this stuff. It may be a lot better and cheaper than you can get from dedicated beer dispensing retailers, but you can run into pitfalls if unsure what you are doing. If you'll need spoon-feeding, leave it alone.
