What is true of it

F♯7sus4 is F♯, B, C♯ and E — 1, 4, 5 and b7 counted from F♯.

On an instrument that cannot reach all 4, the 5 goes first, in that order.

The easiest of the 5 fingerings below is 222420: 2 fingers, one of them barring the 2nd fret, held at the 2nd 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.

4 of the 5 need a barre.

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.
