In the code (where I looked) actually the ctor is protected (and I didn't notice) but the method is public. (1) It's opensource so you could change it. (2) It's Java so you could override with reflection. (3) But the cleanest way is just make a very simple subclass, and use that. And (4) when you do, the result from toBase58 (or toString which just wraps it) is String.

| Apr 25, 2016 at 16:58 | comment | added | John Down | Can you further explain? The method is protected and I can't access it from my main class. Right now I have: Address output = new VersionChecksummedBytes(0x80,privateKeyByte).toBase58(); | |

@JohnDown yes it's in bitcoinj. It's a class (in Java by convention class names start with uppercase letter and method names start with lowercase letter) and is the superclass of the Address class your code already uses -- that's how I found it.
