About G#dim/B

G#dim/B is G# Diminished with B as the lowest note. This is the 1st inversion of the chord — the same notes as G# Diminished (G#, B, D), but voiced so that B sits in the bass. Slash chords create a smoother bass line movement and are common in chord progressions where the bass walks stepwise.
