Have you considered the Reformation Study Bible?......(Sproul....Ligonier)
Not sure there would be a large variance in the notes to make a difference.
There is a good site on Reformed theology named: monergism.com.
They seem to have links to several translations of the Geneva Bible. Some of them include notes. All of them should be FREE!

If this isn't what you want, search around at Google and you should be able to find other versions.

How about picking up an authentic unannotated bible like the Latin Vulgate or the prior Africanus or Vaticanus to see what was originally written 1000 years before the “reformers” got their paws on it?
People seem to be suggesting websites to you rather than actual book versions.
look here at the top two items:
The Geneva Bible is just about the only English Bible I don’t have a copy yet. One of these days. . .
I have two.
One is the complete 1599 version,
L.L.Brown Publishing
561 Melton Road
Ozark, Mo 65721
The second is the NT only.
1602 version
from The Pilgrim Press
Both are photo copies with original notes. The L.L. Brown printing says the Apocrypha was not in theirs, but it WAS!
A suggestion. The printing is as original, hard to read till you get used to it, the NOTES are very small. Get a full page magnifier to enlarge the small print.
Here you are...the 1599 Geneva Bible with Study notes (in PDF format..Free download =
https://www.monergism.com/1599-geneva-bible
Why not get the entire Bible instead of just part of it?
Try ccel.org or achive.org
Both have a lot of free resoutces.
Just a side note: Most of the 1599 Geneva Bibles were printed after 1599. King James outlawed the Geneva Bible to encourage the use of the King James Version. The Geneva Bible was still wildly popular, though, and continued to be printed. The printer would simply put the false date “1599” on it to make it seem legal.
Second side note: I collect old documents and such. You can often get a single page from an original Geneva Bible from the late 1500’s on eBay for $5 or less.
Oh, well, another side note or two: The Geneva Bible was popular in part because it was inexpensive. It was usually printed in a smaller format than the Bishops’ Bible and other versions, making it less expensive. It also usually did not use the scarcely readable old Gothic print that earlier versions did. It also was the first version to number the verses and to put the verses in separate paragraphs. Plus, its maps, tables, charts, woodcut illustrations, and comments made it the forerunner of our modern study Bibles. Plus its primary competitor (before the KJV) was the Bishops’ Bible, which used a rather stilted and awkward language and style.
Neither the church in England nor the English king approved of the Geneva Bible. The church objected to its Calvinist influence in the comments, and the king objected to its seeming advocacy for more democratic forms of government, both in the church and in the nation.
Can anyone recommend a particular publisher and version of the Geneva Bible which will contain the Reformers' notes? I want to get some feel for the Reformers' ideas on the relationship, limits, and obligations between the Christian citizen and the State. Thanks in advance!
There have been facimiles produced. This here might interest you: Poor Man’s Geneva Bible – Rebound by Leonard’s Book Restoration.
Current editions in modern typeface, such as Tolle Lege Press', I'm not interested in.
The Geneva notes are a g00gle search away.
