the pitch of the string goes higher. if it doesn't, then either something's wrong with said guitar, or I'm wrong and you should go ask Albert Einstein or your guitar teacher or someone who's smart.
Tightening the strings on a guitar will always make the pitch higher, more or less depending on how much they are tightened.
You know how on a piano, middle C sounds like it's in between the low and high notes? Well, that's because it is. The notes below middle C have low pitched sounds just as the higher notes above middle C, become higher pitched. Same goes for the harp. The high notes come from the strings above middle C. They're shorter and thinner so they sound higher and don't resonate as long.
Violin strings are held on a violin with tuning pegs. The pegs are then turned until the strings reach the correction tension. The correct tension is when the strings are in tune. Adding more tension to a string by turning the pegs will increase the pitch and turning the pegs in the opposite direction will lower the pitch. The strings on a violin are tuned to the notes G D A E from lowest to highest.
if you play the guitar youll see. because all you are doing when you play the guitar is making the strings shorter. the frets stop the string from vibrating past a certain point (that point being the fret) when you make a string shorter it vibrates at a higher frequency thus making the sound higher in pitch. hope his helps - Kyse
Shorten the string. Shorter strings make higher pitches (e.g. violin); longer strings make lower pitches (e.g. double bass).
Shorter strings vibrate at a higher frequency than longer strings.

The strings on the harp vibrate, that vibration resonates in the sound board. The thichnes and the length of the string, as well as the material and construction of the string determine frequency. Thicker and longer strings make for a lower pitch sound. Shorter and thinner strings have height pitch. The sound board amplifies the sound, and also gives the tone a character.

Hi:If you mean up an octave just tongue a lot and blow harder!!!! (not all notes work this way for example low d middle d and high d).
because it has STRINGS and freats.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------String instruments have strings stretched over a box or board. The violin, guitar and banjo are string instruments. Sound is made by plucking the strings. (The piano is a percussion instrument because its strings are struck.)The pitch of these instruments depends on the length, thickness and tightness of the strings. The longer the string, the fewer the vibrations and, therefore, the lower the pitch.Tight, thin strings make sounds with high tones. Loose, thick strings make lower tones.

Generally speaking, the longer the instrument, the lower the pitch i.e. tuba; the shorter the instrument, the higher the pitch i.e. picallo. There are variations, such as the french horn, but they are the exception. This principal is also used in tuning; pulling the mouthpiece on a saxophone out will drop the pitch (the instrument is now longer), and pushing it in will raise the pitch (it is now shorter).
the different tautness helps make different sounds like a guitar. tighter strings = higher sound
