You should be able to tune up on every band. I used this set up for years and it gave me excellent results. Mine was cut for 75 metres and it worked great on 75, 40, 20, 15 and 10. Nice thing is that if you build it right it is almost invisible. Most people would never notice it.
Just be careful though, at higher frequencies the nulls get pretty sharp. My last inverted vee cut for 80m had a deep null towards Europe on 20m. Therefore it was a terrible DX and contest antenna for me.

My current vee is on the ground, The snow of October took it away.
