There are some proper methods and technology used for pitch control and then there are some downright silly ways. A tremolo bridge is used for pitching more than most fingers can bend the strings upward or downward (for vibrato control). Floyd Rose and Kahler make some wildly pitching tremolo systems. One silly way of doing this is bending and twisting the actual neck, but it is not advisable if you plan to keep the guitar in good condition.

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"
