Higher and lower can also be applied to strings, and this gets confusing. When looking at the fretboard from a playing position, the thicker strings will be closer to the player and appear below the thinner strings. Thus, ''visually'' they are lower. Also, they are lower in ''pitch''. Thus, typically the "low" strings are the thickest and high strings the thinnest, which is consistent with the visual layout of the fretboard and tablature. However, strings are numbered from thinnest to thickest, so numerically, the thinnest strings are the "lowest". '''Typically, low/high refers to the visual layout and pitches of the fretboard, not string number.'''
