I would like to request a lesson on singing, especially as it relates to the guitar and the notes of the chords that you are playing. I know this isn't a voice lesson site but there are many guitar songs that are fun to strum but unrecognizable without vocals. Also the use of the capo could tie into this as well.
Related to this would be how to tease out the melody of a song. I have watched the lessons on creating chord solos which are great but I am interested in how to recognize and seperate out the melody of a song. I believe this would be helpful in learning to sing the song as well.
This site has helped immensely in my guitar playing just thought that I would throw out a couple of things that I would like to see. Keep up the great work!

Those are some good suggestions.
Though not a specific lesson on what you are requesting, one of the FOTW with Sandy covered a bit about singing and figuring out the range of a song and where to place the capo. Don't know quite which lesson it was, but maybe Sandy will recall.
Also, there is a lesson that just went up (Puff the Magic Dragon) where Neil talks about taking what he's posted and encouraging us to try to make a chord solo out of it. I've found that that song in particular is fairly easy to finding the melody notes within the chords. I've been working on it for about a week and I've almost got it.... hoping that experience will help me with harder pieces.
