guitar chord
F♯6
A major triad with a sixth added. The same four notes as a minor seventh chord a third below.
Written the other way round it is G♭6 — the same twelve keys on a piano, a different piece of notation.

What is true of it
F♯6 is F♯, A♯, C♯ and D♯ — 1, 3, 5 and 6 counted from F♯.
These are also the notes of D♯m7/F♯ and E♭m7/F♯. Which name is right depends on what is underneath and what came before — the notes alone do not decide.
On an instrument that cannot reach all 4, the 5 goes first, in that order.
The easiest of the 5 fingerings below is 2413xx: 4 fingers, held at the 1st fret.
None of them uses an open string, so this chord moves up the neck unchanged — the same shape 1 fret higher is the chord a semitone above.
1 of the 5 need a barre.
2 strings stay silent.
Where its notes are on the neck
The brass dots are F♯, the root. Everything else is a chord tone with its degree printed in it.

An inversion is the same chord with a different note lowest. The name changes to a slash name because the bass is what a listener hears as the foundation.
