Please help a new tube user!

I'm anticipating my new used Jolida 502b integrated amp in the next couple days. The seller didn't know how old the tubes on it were (3rd party seller) so should I just assume they're old and buy a new set? Also, what tools besides a voltmeter should I have for my tube equipment. Thanks! D

To all who pitched in-- thank you for your help! I'm very excited about moving to tubes... like owning a vintage motorcycle; sure it requires some care, but that's all part of loving the experience. Thanks again! d

don't forget - the new tubes will need burn-in.
