How can you raise the pitch of the note of a guitar string without changing its length?

Explanation:
The frequency also depends on the length of the string that is free to vibrate. In playing, you change this by holding the string firmly against the fingerboard with a finger of the left hand. Shortening the string (stopping it on a higher fret) gives higher pitch.

Explanation:
There are several ways.
Before you do anything with the strings by pressing them down, they each have a pitch. It is changed by tightening and loosening the strings with the tuners. Pitch can also be determined by length and thickness, where as thickness and length go up pitch goes down. Once you actually start putting fingers down, this changes the length of the string. As you make it shorter and shorter, the pitch goes up. The only exeption of this rule are harmonics, which are points along the string where if you touch them lightly they allow vibration on both sides of the finger.
But the main way guitarists change the notes they play is by changing the length of the string by pressing down behind the frets.
