When the HD-28V comes in to your local music store, try it out and see if you like it and if it's worth more money to you. If it were me, I'd use the HD-28 you already have and concentrate on getting good. Some bluegrass players like the HD-28. I have not heard of many BG players using the HD-28V, but that doesn't mean they are not out there.
I can guarantee you that a good BG player could make your HD-28 sound terrific.

If you learn to play that well, nobody will care what model you have.
