Dot Plotter: Given the cache is going to be different, I'd suggest submitting a new cache once it's ready again in a new area with new puzzling methods of arriving at the cache. Archiving.

Geocache Description:

CACHE IS NOT AT THE LISTED COORDINATES

a. Black keys on a piano + cymbals needed to produce sound
b. Strings on a violin
c. Total keys on 7 jaw’s harps
d. Strings on 5 unlucky lutes + strings on a banjo + strings on a violin (or holes in 6 Hohner Marine Band Harmonicas + strings on 2 banjos + strings on a violin)
e. Strings on an Irish Bouzouki
u. Cellos in a Marching Band
v. Trombones in the big parade + slides on a trombone
w. Strings on an oboe
x. Keys on a trumpet + strings on a Fender Telecaster guitar
y. Strings on a mountain dulcimer (even number)
z. White keys on a piano

Coordinates were calculated using traditional versions of the instruments above. (I found the lute in, of all places, a bakery.) (The banjo has an odd number of strings.)

Parking is tricky, but use your judgement to pick a "legal" spot. It is not necessary to traverse any transportation right-of-ways! DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS CACHE AT NIGHT!!

I'll be glad to verify coordinates and/or alter the hints if there is confusion. N a bc.de W uv wx.yz
