An easier G♯7♭5♭9
The full shape is a barre chord, hard at first. This one needs no full barre and sounds much the same: your little finger on the low E string at the 4th fret, your index finger on the G string at the 1st fret, your middle finger on the B string at the 1st fret and your ring finger on the high E string at the 2nd fret. Let the A and D strings ring open.
