The Guide Tones II voicing of C#maj7 stacks B# and E# from the bottom up: the major 7th and major 3rd of the chord. It leaves out the root, C#, for the left hand or the bass player to take.

It's one of the Guide Tones voicings: just the 3rd and 7th, the notes that define each chord, played over the root. The other for C#maj7 is Guide Tones I.
