E|4
B|4
G|5
D|6
A|6
E|4

EDIT: the # implies that it's a sharp chord.... meaning it's a half step up from a regular G.

yes, pimp_vince is correct.

Also, the "b" in Ab means flat or a half step down from A.

the symbol for minor is a lower case "m". So this would be Aminor "Am"

firstly there is no open form of G# anyway and secondly every standard minor, major chord uses the same minor and same major shape off the 6th and 5th string....just learn what these shapes are then learn the notes on the 6th and 5th string (all the strings for that matter) and then you can play any chord you want anywhere on the fretboard....after learning open chord shapes its the very next thing you should learn......that and the major scale.
