G♯ is the black key above G. A G♯ major key signature would need double sharps, so its chords and scales are usually written as the enharmonic A♭; G♯ itself most often appears as the leading tone of A. Every scale and mode starting on G# is listed below — from the major and minor scales through the pentatonic, blues, modal, and exotic sets — each with diagrams, fingerings, audio, and notation.
