@TheWickedEnd0851 continued… make sure u go in this order. E B G D A E. locate your bridge. on the intonation peices. make sure the string rests in the crevice of it. and start by feeding the string through the bridge and bring the string up onto the nut and do what i told you in the other comment from there. if you have more questions ask

@TheWickedEnd0851 ok go to a local guitar store. if you have a acoustic get martins. if you have an electric get ernie ball super slinkys or diadarios. then pick up the guitar and locate the tuners. take the string and wind it around the peg 3 times the insert it through the hole. then wind the srting till it can have an identfiable p from the itch. continue with each string. on the side of the e b and g strings wind starting from the left. on the side where u have the d a g. wind from the right

@OptixNick those things at the top are for tuning your guitar and they can tighten or loosen the strings to make your guitar sound better.if you tighten them too much your strings break when you try to play.only touch those when you are tuning your guitar
