G♯maj7

G♯1B♯3D♯5F𝄪7

Major triad with a major seventh: a half step below the root, an octave up.

Written the other way round it is A♭maj7 — the same twelve keys on a piano, a different piece of notation.

What is true of it

G♯maj7 is G♯, B♯, D♯ and F𝄪 — 1, 3, 5 and 7 counted from G♯.

F𝄪 is a double sharp, and it has to be: every letter from G♯ upwards is used once, so the 7 cannot be written any other way.

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