Is there any type of saddle I can by off the shelf from Guitar Center or Sam Ash that will fit my 1861? It has the thinline saddle and pickup.

Either contact Ovation and order a CP-100 Thinline saddle...

Or get an Artec undersaddle pickup and whatever saddle will work.

I have done the Artec route... I recommend contacting Ovation instead.

I called yesterday and this morning but haven't heard back from them yet. I was thinking about the Artec pickup, I guess it isn't very good?

Artec pickups are okay, but a separate piezo and saddle is still different from the original.

Since you have a USO you should get the correct part.
