What happens to the pitch of a guitar when the strings are tightened?

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.
