If you have bottomed out the saddles you would need to adjust the knife edge screws.
If you do FIRST loosen all the strings and take the springs off.
lower all the screws equally a small adjustment makes a big difference, if you are watching the John Mann set up video he uses a 2.5mm allen to measure the screw height , I had one guitar that worked better with a 2mm allen.
As far as the feel of the guitar goes if 10s on a LP are your thing then 9.5-44 , I believe will get you where you want ( 9s would be killer also ) it will always feel different , bending with a trem takes bit of extra push as the trem moves , also a 24 fret guitar will feel like you are reaching out further when doing open chords but its way more comfortable up high. I have my CU24 and LP set up with 10s and I have considered going up to 11s on my LP
