Should I get another wedge(s) ? (beginner with just a PW)

Assuming you haven't played that much (if at all), I wouldn't worry too much. At 49deg your PW will be as effective as you need at short range.
It'll be fine for a putting stroke bump and run from the greenside, and won't be any more random for bunker shots than a "proper" sand wedge.
