A♯5

A♯1E♯5

Root and fifth, no third at all — neither major nor minor, which is the point.

Written the other way round it is B♭5 — the same twelve keys on a piano, a different piece of notation.

What is true of it

A♯5 is A♯ and E♯ — 1 and 5 counted from A♯.

The easiest of the 1 fingering below is 356x: 3 fingers, held at the 3rd 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 string stays silent.

The brass dots are A♯, the root. Everything else is a chord tone with its degree printed in it.

A♯5/E♯

x568

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.
