Mandolin is strung in four courses of two, each pair tuned in unison, so each stopped note here sounds as two — which is why the shape rings thicker than the same grip on a single-strung instrument.
On Mandolin it is most often played as a movable shape you can slide along the fretboard to reach the right register, with the lowest comfortable position depending on your tuning and reach.
Browse alternate voicings to find the one that sits best under your fingers, then compare it with the other chord types built on F# or explore the same shape in nearby keys. The diagrams list the notes in each voicing so you can connect the shape to the theory behind it.
