A dominant seventh carrying a ninth on top.

What is true of it
G♯9 is G♯, B♯, D♯, F♯ and A♯ — 1, 3, 5, b7 and 9 counted from G♯.
On an instrument that cannot reach all 5, the 5 and 1 go first, in that order.
The easiest of the 4 fingerings below is 464546: 4 fingers, one of them barring the 4th fret, held at the 4th 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 4 need a barre.
Where its notes are on the neck
The brass dots are G♯, 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.
