Fender Super Twin - any good?

There's an old guy around here trying to sell me a Fender Super Twin. It's noisy, but it just sounds like dirty pots. What I'm worried about is the SIX 6L6GC's and the Compactron in the preamp. That could be a very pricey amp to re-tube. I didn't play through it yet, he was putting the hard sell on me and I was trying to bow out gracefully until I could get some info on the thing. Plus the dude said two of the power tubes were bad so he put some new ones in there. I'm sure he just put them in and didn't bias the amp or care if they matched or not.
