i find it hard and.. quite freaky to tune the guitar to its correct tune like this :
< THIS IS THE CORRECT TUNE FOR GUITAR RIGHT? >

E
B
G <--- only manage to tune it to D since im too afraid to spin more. ( hearing some cracking sound from the string T.T )
D <--- same reason as above but manage to tune it to G )
A <--- same reason as above but manage to tune it in F )
E


so basically mine were setup like:

E <--thickest string
B
D
G
F
E<--thinnest string

are my guitar tuned correctly? im seriously too afraid to continue to push the strings to the limit. i assume so since the cracking seems quite uhh.. scary >.<
(or izzit just my imagination?, it wont snap? should i just continue to spin the tuner on the headstock )

im using digital tuner by B-BAND ( installed within the guitar )

well, i'm not sure what went wrong, but i think...

(using the scale: A B C D E F G)

your G string is overtuned
your D string is overtuned
your A string is undertuned

there is no real excuse for not using google to check how to tune a guitar properly.
the tuner may get u to the right note, but not the right octave.
in this case, ur probably tuning towards the wrong octave.
