There are a few balance issues, even if you included the errata the PHB paladin is a lot worse than the PHB fighter for example. Still doable though. I'd recommend widening your to net to PHBs 1 & 2. PHB2 is often thought of as WOTC's class design pinnacle.
I would prefer to have the 3 power books rather than the PHB2. They add breadth of options which can be a bit limited in just a PHB, though this may not be as much of a problem as it is playing in LFR where you meet lots of characters that would otherwise tend to the same choices.
I am surprised by the love for PHB2 classes. I always feel it's overshadowed by the Shaman & it's extreme incomprehensible fiddliness. Druids too I felt should have had natural weapons in beast form so their attacks are not all wis vs ref. Plus noone seems to know wha they do.
