they're 29 or 34-ish inches before they're stretched and cut to make sure they fit most Guitars

Which guitar string would have the lower pitch the guitar string is short and tight or guitar string is really long and loose?

depending on the the individual gauges of the six (6) guitar strings ie: E, A, D, G, B, E, of course the guitar string that is long and loose produces the lowest pitch... A good example of this are the strings on a mandolin or a 'banduria' which has shorter strings compared to the strings on the guitar...because the mandolin/banduria strings are shorter and tighter, it produces higher pitch... "short and tight=higher pitch......long and loose=lower pitch"

What is the best brand in guitar strings?

Best long term strings around, are Dunlop strings. For about $5 a pack, they last up to two months, and never lose their tone, or tuning. Ernie Balls are good for about a week before they start rusting out. Another good brand is Blue Steals by Dean Markley, which are supposedly cryogenically frozen before being packed and shipped. The best strings to use for a gig or one time, are Ernie Balls. They rust out quickly and if you buy them from Guitar Center, they sit in the warehouse for god knows how long, before they finally make it to the store, so if you use them, buy from a small shop, because those places get them to you quickest. Guitar Center buys loads of them. Once again though, Dunlop strings haven't let me down yet for a gig, though I change them before I play. I usually keep the new set in for about a month before getting another pack.
