How does one loosen the strings on a guitar?

You cannot tighten a guitar string without changing it's tuning. If your string is too loose and it is tuned correctly, try buying heavier gauge strings. Lighter gauge strings need to be more loose that heavy gauge in order to oscillate at the correct amount of hertz to get the same note. Heavier gauge strings can remain fairly tight but due to their size, they tend to oscillate slower.

Called the Father of Metal, The Father of Modern Rock; Hendrix was what every subsequent guitarist that grew up listening to him would want to be; A Guitar Hero.

I suppose he could have and it's still a secret, but I would definitely doubt it.
